Total Mobility deadline extended
Users of Taranaki’s Total Mobility taxi discount scheme are being given more time to get new ID cards.
The ID cards are being introduced by the Taranaki Regional Council, which administers the scheme. The deadline for their introduction was originally 1 March but it has been pushed back to 7 April.
Many users of the Total Mobility scheme have already been contacted to arrange new ID cards but contact details of others have changed. The extra time will give them a chance to get a card.
The Council is introducing the ID cards to improve management of the scheme, which has grown rapidly in recent years.
From 7 April, there will be no discount if the ID card is not produced.
Users of the Total Mobility vouchers who have not already been contacted are urged to act urgently. Call the Taranaki Regional Council on 0800 736 222 or e-mail transport@trc.govt.nz.
