Accessible rides in Vancouver, British Columbia
ARK doesn’t drive in Vancouver yet, so there’s nothing to book here today. When we launch, riders in Kitsilano, Mount Pleasant and Marpole will have vetted wheelchair-accessible vehicles and door-to-door support for trips to Vancouver General Hospital and St. Paul's Hospital, clinics, and appointments across Metro Vancouver — with no accessibility surcharge. BC riders may be eligible for support through Persons with Disabilities (PWD) benefits and regional Health Connections travel assistance.
