Summary of the contracting process

East Riding of Yorkshire Council procured a trial bus service under a concession arrangement. The service is intended to create new public transport links between Pocklington and Market Weighton, and Castle Hill Hospital and Hull Royal Infirmary. The requirement falls within transport services (CPV 60000000) and covers activity in East Riding of Yorkshire. It is a single service requirement rather than a broader transport programme, with the route connecting towns in the area to two hospital destinations. The buyer is East Riding of Yorkshire Council, based in Beverley. The awarded supplier is a bus operator, showing that the requirement is suited to businesses able to plan and deliver scheduled passenger transport linking local communities with healthcare facilities.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to EAST YORKSHIRE MOTOR SERVICES LIMITED on 10 September 2026. The award value is £86,393.97 excluding VAT, or £103,672.76 including VAT. The contract period runs from 2 November 2026 to 31 March 2027. The procedure was described as below threshold, with the specific method recorded as unknown, and the procurement was treated as a concession. There was one completed lot and one active award. The selected supplier is responsible for the service covering the Pocklington and Market Weighton links to Castle Hill Hospital and Hull Royal Infirmary. A future contract signature was scheduled for 11 September 2026.

This award is relevant to established bus operators and specialist passenger transport businesses with the operational capacity to run a scheduled trial service between market towns and hospitals. A credible competitor would need experience of linking local communities with healthcare destinations, managing dependable timetabled services and providing vehicles, drivers and day-to-day service operations for a defined route. The successful supplier is a large bus company, indicating that the requirement can suit operators with an existing transport network and the resources to mobilise a local service. Businesses monitoring East Riding of Yorkshire Council should treat this procurement as evidence of demand for targeted public transport connections that support access to hospital services, rather than general transport provision.
