Summary of the contracting process

Transport for London (TfL) has completed the public procurement process for a Bus Shelter Advertising Concession in the Greater London area, with a total contract value of GBP 1,063,200,000. This concession involves the right to sell and display advertising on TfL's bus shelter estate. The procurement method was voluntary, adhering partially to the Concessions Contracts Regulations 2016. The contract was awarded on 10th September 2024, following the tender period which ended on 17th June 2024. The contract is set to start on 1st April 2025 and will run until 31st March 2035. The winning bidder for this advertising concession is JCDECAUX UK LTD.

This tender presents substantial business growth opportunities, particularly for large-scale advertising firms with the capability to manage extensive outdoor advertising projects. Businesses in the advertising services industry, classified under CPV code 79341000, would find this concession particularly advantageous. The contract duration and the high value underline the potential for sustained revenue. While TfL has conducted the procurement considering larger firms, there is a significant precedent set for high-value, long-term collaborations with public bodies, which might be of interest to large established players in the advertising industry.
