The procurement process is currently in the tender stage, with an open procedure allowing for competitive bidding. The total contract value is estimated at £7,000,000.

The classification of the procurement falls under Transport services, excluding waste transport, with an additional focus on public road transport services.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in transportation services, particularly those with experience in public road transport.
