That’s the key recommendation of a cross-party council working group set up to look into why the service run by charity York Wheels closed last year.
Members of the council’s ‘task and finish’ group consulted with a host of transport user groups, and also received more than 40 representations by phone and email.
One person who responded said they would be happy to pay more if the service could be resumed; another, whose partner had dementia, said their partner ‘can’t understand what has happened to the Dial and Ride service’.
- York Wheels continues to operate the York volunteer driver scheme. To book a car, call York Wheels on 01904 630080.
