Accessible rides in Halifax, Nova Scotia
ARK doesn’t drive in Halifax yet, so there’s nothing to book here today. When we launch, riders in Dartmouth, Bedford and Clayton Park will have vetted wheelchair-accessible vehicles and door-to-door support for trips to QEII Health Sciences Centre and IWK Health Centre, clinics, and appointments across the Halifax Regional Municipality — with no accessibility surcharge. Nova Scotia riders on Income Assistance disability supports and other provincial programs may have eligible trips covered.
