The services will be required across various regions of the United Kingdom including the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East, and South West.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the passenger transport sector, especially those capable of providing hire services with drivers.
