Medway Mobility
Medway Mobility is a weekly bus service specifically designed
for people in the Medway area who:
- are frail and elderly; or
- have a disability.
It is operated by ASD Coaches on behalf of Medway Council.
How does it work?
The Medway Mobility takes you from as close as possible to your
front door to the centres of Chatham, Rochester, Strood or
Gillingham. It also serves Medway Maritime Hospital and Hempstead
Valley.
Medway Mobility operates from a different area each day of the
week. It collects you between 9.30 and 10am and returns between
12.30 and 1.30pm.
The driver will give you any help you need to get on or off the
bus. It has been designed for easy access and is
wheelchair-friendly.
All you need to do is register with the council. When you have
received your pass, call the Medway Mobility dial-a-bus service and
book your journey at least a day in advance.
