The procurement process for passenger transport services via taxi in the United Kingdom is currently in the planning stage, managed by London North Eastern Railway Limited. This process, identified as LNER10024, is set within the transport services industry category. The procurement method is a planned tender process aimed at engaging services, with significant dates set; notably, a future notice is expected by 31 July 2025.
