Wheelchair-accessible taxis in Monmouth

Book a wheelchair-accessible vehicle (WAV) ahead with a Monmouthshire-licensed operator. Agincourt Square, Monnow Street, and the canoe-centre approach are not places to rely on a spontaneous WAV.

Ask Rockfield (01600 709980), Monnow Taxi (07968 059409), or AFX (07776 380994) whether a designated WAV is available for your time. Under the Equality Act 2010, drivers of designated WAVs must assist wheelchair users and cannot charge extra for the wheelchair. Report refusal or surcharging to Monmouthshire County Council licensing.
