Driving services

Apply for transport

People with disability who can’t use public transport can apply for driving services for work, school, habilitation, training, social activities, or doctor’s visits.

Who can get driving service?

To be entitled to the service you need to have legal residency in Hafnarfjörður and fulfil at least one of the following requirements:

  • Have a physical disability and use a wheelchair.
  • Unable to use public transport because of disability.
  • Suffer from blindness.

Children with disability can use the driving services for doctor’s visits or habilitation. School shuttle and after-school shuttle is available for children to attend school and social activities.

How to apply for driving services?

Applications can be found on My Pages under applications for services for people with disability. For more information you can send questions to akstur@hafnarfjordur.is.

Ordering a drive

You can order a drive with the services by calling them at 515 2720 or sending an email to ferd@teitur.is.

The order must be made with at least two hour notice. Please call rather than sending an email if the trip is within 24 hours. The phone is open from 08:00–16:00 on weekdays.
