How to Request a Drive

To ensure a smooth process for arranging transportation, please follow these steps when making a drive request.

 

Request Methods

Email: This is the preferred method for drive requests. Please write to: tranport@amaravati.org

Written Note: You may leave a written note with the necessary details on the Transport Coordinator (TC) desk.

Verbal Requests: These should generally be avoided unless it's an emergency. Use your discretion for urgent matters.

 

Local Trip

For local trips, consider using the Hertslynx community bus if available.

This service can be a convenient alternative for travel to Hemel Hempstead or Berkhamsted. 

It is recommended to book the bus as early as possible, as availability is limited and it may not be possible to reserve a spot if requested just a few days in advance. More details to how to book a HertsLynx bus.

 

Advance Notice

Submit your drive request as early as possible.

This makes it easier for the drivers and the Transport Coordinator to manage, especially during busy times when multiple drives need to be arranged.

Even though last-minute trips can sometimes be accommodated, advance notice is always appreciated to avoid delays and ensure smooth planning.

 

Time to avoid

Moon Days and Quiet Days: It is recommended to avoid asking Anagārikas and Anagārikās to drive on Moon Days and Quiet Days. 

Early Morning or Late Night Drives: It is best to avoid very early morning (before 06:30) or late-night (after 22:00) drives. This is in consideration of the drivers, especially for maintaining their well-being and rest.
