About US
Driven by Purpose, Backed by Experience, Focused on Inclusion.
The Wheel-Chair Taxi Association of BC (WCTABC) was established with a single, powerful vision: to make accessible transportation available to everyone, everywhere in British Columbia. We are a dedicated group of transportation professionals, advocates, and community leaders who believe that mobility is a basic human right—not a privilege reserved for a few.
Our Roots
WCTABC was founded by industry veterans with decades of hands-on experience, particularly through Richmond Taxi, a respected name in the Lower Mainland’s transportation sector. Over the years, we’ve witnessed firsthand the barriers faced by individuals who use wheelchairs or have mobility challenges—whether it’s long wait times, lack of vehicles, or cities with no service at all.
We saw the gap. And we decided to close it.
Our Mission

We work tirelessly to:
Advocate for the expansion of accessible transport services across urban, suburban, and rural BC
