Getting to Woking shopMobility
Whilst many of our clients drive to Woking to use our service and our car park that is not always possible in the longer term. We understand that our clients circumstances change so we thought it would be useful to share some information about how you can travel to the centre even if you no longer drive or are unable to do so. This can be via private taxi firms or community transport. Here we give you a breakdown of how these services work. All of which have a fee attached like a normal taxi service.
