UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured specialist client transport services for five pupils with special educational needs and disabilities attending Moon Hall School & College. The requirement covers daily transport between the pupils’ home areas in Thames Ditton, Esher, Cobham and North Holmwood and the school in Reigate. It involves one medium multi-purpose vehicle with seven passenger seats and does not require a passenger assistant. This is a passenger transport service (CPV 60000000), focused on transporting a small, defined group of school-aged clients safely between several Surrey locations and their school. The council is the public-sector buyer and the service is centred on the Reigate school journey.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. ROAD LINK GATWICK LIMITED was selected for the single lot. The award was made on 11 August 2026, and the contract was signed the same day. The active contract runs from 3 September 2026 to 31 July 2029. Its gross value is £109,992.86. The arrangement covers the full client transport requirement described for Moon Hall School & College, rather than separate awards for different routes or groups. The published outcome identifies the successful supplier and confirms that Surrey County Council used a limited competition route for this service.

This opportunity demonstrates a defined requirement for specialist school transport serving pupils with special educational needs and disabilities across Surrey. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need access to a medium MPV with seven passenger seats, sufficient operational capacity for five students, and the ability to provide reliable journeys between Thames Ditton, Esher, Cobham, North Holmwood and Reigate. Operators with established local coverage, practical route-planning capability and experience coordinating regular school transport would be well placed to meet the pattern of work. The limited-competition route also indicates that suppliers need to be capable of responding to a focused, below-threshold council requirement rather than only large transport contracts.
