Notice Title

Towing service of trailers carrying Mobile Roller Brake Testers

Notice Description

DVSA (Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency) was seeking a single supplier to tow trailers carrying Mobile Brake Testers for DVSA's Enforcement staff from a base site to where the trailers will be unloaded and used to check vehicles at a 3rd parties' site. The supplier will then return at the completion of this work and tow the trailers back to the base site. DVSA Enforcement Examiners will agree with the successful supplier where and when the road check will take place and, wherever possible, the action will be pre-planned and could occur at any time of the day/night 7 days a week.
