The municipality of Heist-op-den-Berg has extended its collaboration with Rolkar Rivierenland until the end of 2027. This ensures that adapted transport remains available for residents who have difficulty or are unable to use public transport.

Rolkar Rivierenland primarily provides transport for individuals with disabilities, limited mobility, or those who use wheelchairs. The service operates seven days a week, from 6:30 AM to 12:00 AM (midnight).
The service can be utilized for various journeys, including trips to the hospital, for commuting and school travel, and for transport to a daycare or rehabilitation center. Other necessary journeys requiring adapted transport are also covered.
Users are required to reserve their transport for the upcoming week in advance.
The Social Welfare Council approved the extension of the cooperation agreement for 2027, guaranteeing the continuity of these services for the residents.
