The Rock Lake Handy Van operates with funds from the Manitoba Government, the Municipality of Louise and client user fees and is run by a Council Board. Due to escalating costs and the lack of availability of approved drivers the fees are as follows:

1. User Fees - Minimum charge is $24.00

If the trip is within the Municipality of Louise boundaries the cost is $24.

If the trip is outside the boundaries of the Municipality of Louise the rate is $1.10 per km and the mileage is clocked from pick up of the client to drop off of the client.  The cost of $1.10 is for unlimited time but if a ‘wait time’ is more than 1 hour then the cost for the additional wait time is $24 per hour (pro rated to the nearest 15 minutes).

If a one way trip is needed for a trip outside the boundaries of the Municipality of Louise the rate is clocked from pick up of the client to drop off of the client at the cost of $1.10 per km.  An additional rate of $24 per hour is charged for the Handivan driver to return to base in Crystal City


2. Service hours - 8 am to 6 pm Monday to Friday - times and dates outside normal service must be pre-arranged with the driver or arrangements made to supply an approved driver.

3. The driver may request that an attendant accompany a user - if client needs assistance to be mobile, attendant may be required.
 
 
 
**The Rock Lake Handy Van has been awarded a one-time grant of $10,000 from the Province of Manitoba to provide transportation services for clients to and from COVID-19 vaccination appointments outside their home community. This means trips can be offered free of charge for local residents.  Cut off of this service will be once the total of expense $10,000 is reached.
