Understanding the Support
What is NDIS Transport Support in Melbourne?
NDIS transport support in Melbourne helps participants who, because of their disability, are unable to use public transport independently. It covers travel to and from activities funded in your NDIS plan and can also fund travel training to help you build the skills and confidence to navigate Melbourne’s public transport network independently over time.
There are different transport funding arrangements in NDIS plans, and understanding which applies to your situation is important. Some participants have a dedicated Transport budget in their plan. Others receive transport support as part of a community access or other support booking. Our Melbourne team can help you understand exactly what your plan covers and how to make the most of it.
Transport Budget
NDIS Mental Health Support (what we provide)
Some NDIS plans include a specific Transport budget line a set amount of funding specifically for transport to support funded activities in Melbourne. This can be used with registered transport providers like Pacific Home Care Solutions.
Community Access / Core Supports
Transport Within a Support Booking
In other Melbourne plans, transport costs are included within a community access or other Core Support booking. Your support worker travels with you as part of the overall support session rather than as a separate transport cost.

Your support worker accompanies you on regular routes, provides assistance and guidance, and gradually reduces their input as your confidence and skills grow.
