ARK doesn’t drive in Edmonton yet, so you can’t book a ride here. Tell us you need one and we’ll write to you the day we launch. Travel seated in your own manual or power wheelchair. ARK matches you with a low-floor ramp or lift-equipped vehicle and a driver trained in 4-point securement. When ARK launches in Edmonton, Alberta, wheelchair rides will cover Mill Woods and Strathcona through Mill Woods and Strathcona, including trips to University of Alberta Hospital and Royal Alexandra Hospital.
