TXIK TXAK offers a transport service for passengers with reduced mobility. That service enables people with reduced mobility to travel between their home and the destination of their choosing, and to be assisted when boarding the specially equipped vehicle, until they are dropped off at the desired destination.
Passengers with reduced mobility have access to the same fares as other users, regardless of the service they use. But the person accompanying the passenger with reduced mobility travels free of charge if the person with reduced mobility holds a Mobility Inclusion Card, regardless of the condition cited on the card.
