Free mobility scooters to use in Wellington:
City Mobility is a Wellington City Council and TSB Bank project providing a number of free mobility scooters to help people get around and enjoy Wellington city.
The scooters are safe and easy to use. Trained staff will show you how. The scooters are available to anyone who has limited mobility, from wheelchair users to the elderly. You're even eligible with a broken leg.
No payment is required. You just need to leave a security item such as a credit card or car keys. Scooters can be booked for up to four hours and collected from one of four convenient locations.
Advance bookings are recommended.
