This award shows Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport buying a defined, four-seat passenger journey to a countryside classroom, through a mini-competition under its passenger transport purchasing system. Suppliers competing for a comparable requirement would need to be able to deliver passenger transport on the Reydon–Lowestoft–Burgh Castle route and provide a vehicle with four seats. The scale is a specific, small-capacity journey rather than a broad transport service. The successful supplier was Dan's Prebooked Cars.
