Transport for London’s specialist mobility service, London Dial-a-Ride, continues to provide a vital service. James Day finds out about the latest developments from James Mead
The Dial-a-Ride branch of TfL provides door-to-door transport for registered passengers who have mobility needs which prevent them from using TfL’s wider public transport network. CBW last visited London Dial-a-Ride five years ago as part of our Superfeature coverage of TfL – CBW1130. How has the organisation progressed since then?

James has worked for Transport for London (TfL) for 15 years and has been at the helm of London Dial-a-Ride for the last three of those years.
