Taxi Amic, the adapted taxi company belonging to Moventis that has partnered with TCC Transports Ciutat Comtal, has received the “award for commitment to transport services for persons with reduced mobility” at the I Catalonia Awards organised by the La Razón newspaper last December.

These awards, which recognise the work of companies and business leaders who have successfully responded to the needs of society within such a difficult scenario as the one we have today, highlight the more than 25-year track record of Taxi Amic in providing transport services to all those people who cannot use standard vehicles in the Barcelona area with an adapted mobility system that was the first of its kind in Europe.

This company offers its transport services to persons with reduced mobility via a fleet of fully adapted taxis and a one-to-one process given that the specific nature of this service requires a highly personalised response for its users. Taxi Amic drivers are not only engaged in transporting people from one place to another but also perform other roles, such as assistance and support for accessing and alighting from the vehicle, accompaniment to and from the pavement, wheelchair anchoring and safety belt use.

Furthermore, Taxi Amic not only provides its adapted transport services in the Barcelona area but also offers transfers to Barcelona Airport and the Port of Barcelona, as well as motorway journeys outside of Barcelona, exclusively to persons with reduced mobility.

As Jordi Galbán, Manager of Taxi Amic, explains “we are very happy to receive this recognition of our commitment to mobility for people who, because of a disability, are unable to use conventional public transport services. We at Taxi Amic work hard every day to offer them the best travel experience and, in short, do our bit to help build a better society”.
