Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

East Riding of Yorkshire Council procured taxi and passenger transport services for home-to-school journeys and transport for pupils with special educational needs. The requirement covered 76 routes, with contracts awarded to multiple transport providers rather than one supplier delivering the entire service. The work is for journeys within the East Riding of Yorkshire area. It falls within passenger transport services, including taxi transport and other special-purpose road passenger transport. This opportunity is most relevant to taxi, private-hire and passenger-transport operators able to provide school and special educational needs transport on defined routes for a local authority.

The procurement is complete: contracts were awarded to 28 suppliers and signed on 21 August 2026. It was run through a selective restricted procedure under a passenger transport dynamic purchasing system, and price was the stated award criterion. The 28 contracts, in supplier order, were valued at £35,568 (1st Choice Taxis), £337,961 (24x7 Ltd), £1,155,628 (966 Cars Ltd), £171,000 (Amvale Medical Transport), £68,400 (Anderson Minibus Hire), £18,240 (Blacktietravel), £42,560 (Coxy’s Cars), £407,170 (DC Travel), £92,560 (East Hull Cars), £24,510 (Eddie’s Cabs), £28,234 (Fabcab Taxi Services), £66,337 (Harriden), £34,200 (Holderness Cars/Hedon Express), £110,200 (Jason Shields), £163,780 (JJ Travel), £45,600 (Joe Baxi Taxis), £108,300 (M&P Travel), £55,024 (Mallys Taxis), £36,100 (Minster Cars), £320,056 (Mr P A Ellis), £50,920 (Nippy Taxis), £136,020 (NP Travel), £15,048 (R Brown Taxi), £60,040 (Riverside Travel), £34,200 (RYDEZ), £99,560 (Willerby Cars), £196,650 (zoyp) and £187,187 (Hull Travel Services).

This award demonstrates recurring local-authority demand for contracted home-to-school and special educational needs transport across a substantial set of separate routes. The buyer placed work with a broad mix of providers: most identified suppliers were small or medium-sized enterprises, alongside a large operator. That pattern indicates that smaller operators can be credible when they can deliver the requirements of individual routes, while larger providers may also compete. A prospective supplier would need to operate passenger vehicles suitable for the routes it targets and be able to provide reliable school and special educational needs journeys. Price was the stated award criterion, so competitive pricing matters. The evidence supports relevance to taxi and minibus operators serving East Riding of Yorkshire; it does not establish specific vehicle, accreditation or experience requirements.
