Measures can still be taken on the day of departure but advance warning enables the company to assist foot passengers on P&O.
If you arrive by car there are parking spaces reserved for people with disabilities within the car park. There is also a direct rail link to the ferry terminal for foot passengers. In the terminal there are toilets for people with disabilities, public telephones, a shop and restaurant. Wheelchairs can be made available, if required.

Travelling by Car
If you are travelling by car then you will placed in a special queue so that every assistance can be given to you. This will ensure primarily that you can gain access to the car deck lifts. The P&O staff will give you any assistance you may require.
