Wheelchair-accessible taxis in Colwyn Bay

Book a wheelchair-accessible vehicle (WAV) ahead with a Conwy-licensed operator — do not assume a spontaneous WAV at Station Square or Rhos-on-Sea after an Eirias event.

Under the Equality Act 2010, drivers of designated WAVs must carry wheelchair users, assist, and cannot charge extra for a wheelchair passenger. Report refusal or surcharging to Conwy CBC licensing. Give a precise pickup (station vs Princes Drive vs Rhos promenade) — the Bay is more spread out than Llandudno.
