Notice Title
Milton Keynes Council - Demand Responsive Transport Network
Notice Description
Further competition under Milton Keynes Council Local Bus Service DPS - Lot 2 Shared Taxi and Demand Responsive Service. Due to the increasing costs of the subsidised bus network making it unsustainable and the impact of COVID bringing the ongoing pressures to a head, The Council has taken the decision to move most of its subsidised network to demand responsive transport. The Council is seeking a contract for the operation and the software to run a full 'corner to corner' DRT service within the parameters laid out by the Council. The service will need to integrate rather than compete with the commercial local bus network. Within scope are the possible adaptation of the service to hub and spoke or transfer based if patronage grows significantly. The entire borough of Milton Keynes, including rural areas and new developments that may begin during the contract period are within scope. Cross Boundary trips are not within scope. The Council proposes to enter into Contract for an initial period of three years with the successful tenderer (Service Provider). There will be options to extend by 12 months for a further two years.
