This contract, categorized within the transport services industry, has reached the award stage and spans from 18 May 2026 to 17 July 2026 with an option for renewal. The procurement process adopted was a limited competition approach, falling below the threshold for a broad tender.

The awarded supplier for this contract is M Imraz T/a Hackney Carriage Taxi, a small to medium-sized enterprise based in Keighley.
