The procurement stage has moved to the award phase, with the contract awarded to Everest Taxis on 30th April 2025, covering regions across the United Kingdom, including London and the East Midlands. This contract, initiated as a tender on an unspecified method, commenced on 1st May 2025 and is set to conclude on 31st July 2028.
