Summary of the contracting process

This project falls under the procurement of goods within the transportation industry category and is located in Liverpool, United Kingdom. The contract was awarded through a selective procurement method under a framework agreement as of 15th June 2026. The entire conversion process, including specialist seating and wheelchair access installation, is scheduled to be completed by June 2027.
