Ring & Ride Schemes operate within a number of towns and rural locations throughout Devon. They are the main initiative in the provision of public transport for Disabled and Frail Elderly people and provide a local service into local towns to allow potentially house bound people the opportunity to shop and use local amenities. The difference between a Ring & Ride and a conventional service lies in the flexible routing and the fact that the minibus is specially adapted with a wheelchair lift and removable seats to accommodate wheelchairs.

Passengers book a journey in advance simply by phoning their local scheme Co-ordinator the day before they wish to travel and are picked up at their door with assistance from the driver if necessary.

Ring & Ride Schemes have proved to be a great success and extremely popular with those that use them. Without the service many Disabled and Frail Elderly people would not be able to get out and about and visit the town centres to do their shopping or make essential trips to the post office, bank etc.
