505050 Taxis have launched a new service for the disabled section of the community. All operators within 505050 who have provided disabled accessible taxis under the regulations adopted by Dundee City Council have grouped together to form “outandabout” which is aimed at giving everyone the opportunity to get out and about with their families / carers. They can then enjoy outings and will choose when to go, where to go, and what to do!! This service is primary aimed at assisting families / friends / carers with organising personal trips for housebound and/ or wheelchair users. The drivers have taken it upon themselves to provide this service since they applied for licences which would allow them to serve a market which was considered to be under-provided. Under the scheme, anyone can phone 505050 to order a taxi for any type of outing. The company will provide a quotation for any excursion based on the customer’s own itinerary, and will ensure the driver remains at an agreed place in case the trip has to be curtailed for any reason. The driver will also provide a mobile telephone number to allow the customer to change the return pick-up point or time. Make Someone Happy Your loved ones no longer have to be housebound in their own home / nursing home / hospital. With our range of professionally adapted/ professionally driven wheelchair accessible vehicles, you can take your friends or relatives out for the kind of day trip that most of us enjoy whenever we want. The vehicle page will show you some of the types of vehicles currently being utilised as accessible taxis. Whether you will be taking someone out on your own or as a family group, we have the vehicles to transport a wheelchair and up to 5 other passengers. We are committed to providing a service to all members of our community and will tailor that service to suit the individual needs of each of our customers.
