This procurement process falls under the general public services category and utilises a limited procurement method. The procurement stage is complete as of 4th September 2024, with the contract being signed on 5th August 2024. The service will be essential for the local region, classified under CPV code 60112000, and was awarded to Telford's Coaches Ltd.
