Globally, the RATP Dev group has considerable expertise in providing demand-responsive transport and paratransit. At RATP Dev Transit London we support our local communities and specialist sectors in providing mobility solutions they can rely on.
“We must make sure that all our customers’ travel needs are provided for and that our drivers are trained to recognise disabilities that aren’t always obvious.”

Process
In London, our buses have evolved to make them easier to board for our wheelchair users and our less mobile customers. Our drivers receive thorough training in spotting disabilities, including those we can’t always see.
We also make public transport available to several specialist sectors of our customer community. For example, our Epsom base runs a shuttle service primarily for hospital staff that runs between three NHS Trust sites: Epsom Hospital, Sutton Hospital and St Helier Hospital in Carshalton.
We run a bus route for staff and students of Kingston University operated by a team of drivers especially recruited and trained to run the service.
Our bus service providing a link between Hatton Cross and London Heathrow airport was particularly appreciated by key workers during the coronavirus lockdown.
