Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

East Sussex County Council is procuring a weekday taxi service for one student, using a four-seat vehicle to travel from TN33 9HQ to Mulberry Academy Bexhill, TN39 4BY. The journey is required Monday to Friday around the school day, from 08:30 to 15:00. No passenger assistant is required. This is a passenger transport service for a single-student school route, rather than a general transport requirement.

The buyer invited offers through a restricted procedure. The tender deadline was 30 September 2026 at 12:00. The proposed contract period runs from 2 October 2026 to 1 July 2029. The procurement is presented as one school transport requirement, and evaluation is under the restricted procedure; no separate award criteria are stated in the available process details.

This requirement suits taxi and private-hire operators able to provide a four-seat vehicle and reliably carry one student on a regular weekday school journey to Mulberry Academy Bexhill. The council marked the opportunity as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses. Operators need to be able to cover the stated route and school-day schedule; no specialist passenger assistant service is required.
