Looking for ndis & aged care from Somerville? Taxi Peninsula picks up from any address in Somerville in a wheelchair accessible taxi with a ramp or hoist, four-point wheelchair restraints and a driver trained to help you in and out safely.
Eramosa Road and Frankston-Flinders Road meet in the town centre and can be busy at school drop-off and pick-up times. Peninsula Link is accessible via Baxter for faster trips north to EastLink and Melbourne. Somerville station is on the Stony Point line; trains are less frequent than metropolitan services, so check connections at Frankston. Newer estates have similar-looking streets, so double-check the address when booking, and farm properties should include gate details. Outside the centre, rural roads have little street lighting, so a porch light helps at night. Weekend traffic towards Hastings and the Western Port coast also passes through town.

ما الأسئلة الأخرى التي يطرحها الناس؟
Can my NDIS plan pay for the taxi?
We bill approved NDIS accounts, so if your plan includes transport funding and the arrangement is in place, trips can be invoiced rather than paid on the day. Talk to your plan manager or support coordinator about what your plan covers, then tell us how you would like billing handled when you first book.
Do you provide transport for aged-care clients?
Yes. We bill approved aged-care accounts and regularly carry older passengers to appointments, shopping, social groups and family visits. Drivers help from door to door and are used to walking frames, folding wheelchairs and passengers who need a little extra time. Residential care staff and family members can book on a client’s behalf.
Can a support coordinator book on my behalf?
Yes. Support coordinators, plan managers, support workers and family members all make bookings for passengers. Give us the passenger’s details, any mobility needs and who should receive confirmations, and we will keep that information with future trips. The driver will always ask for the passenger by name on pick-up.
Can I set up a regular weekly booking?
Yes, and many passengers prefer it. Tell us the days, times and addresses for your regular trips, whether to a day program, therapy, work or shopping, and we will set them up. If something changes, such as a cancelled session or a public holiday, just let us know and we adjust the booking.
Does my support worker pay a separate fare?
A carer or support worker travels with the passenger as part of the same trip. If you are unsure how this applies under your particular funding arrangement, mention it when you book and check with your plan manager, and we will make sure the trip details are recorded clearly for billing.

Yes, and the driver can help carry bags to your door. Many Somerville residents use a taxi between the station, the Eramosa Road shops and home. If you need a wheelchair accessible vehicle, tell us when booking, and give a clear pick-up point near the station or the shops.

My Somerville address is in a new estate. Will the driver find it?
New streets sometimes take time to show up in maps. Add a note with the nearest main road or a landmark, and check your street name and number when booking. If the estate has several entrances, mention which one to use. Your confirmation by SMS or email shows the address for checking.
