The project falls within the industry category of 'Taxi services' and 'Hire of passenger transport vehicles with driver', situated in the East Midlands, United Kingdom.

The contract is valued at £17,550 and is set to commence on 26th August 2025, extending until 31st July 2028.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for firms specialising in passenger transport services, particularly those capable of providing taxi and hire services with drivers.
