Total Mobility Scheme
Total Mobility is a door-to-door, transport scheme for people with disabilities, providing flexible options to move around our district.
Registered users receive half-price fares, up to a $60, with the remainder of the fare paid directly to the driver.
Total Mobility makes it easier to visit friends and family, attend appointments, shop and obtain much-valued independence.
Our district has two local taxi services registered as part of the scheme - both service Morrinsville, Matamata and Te Aroha.
