## Summary

The Cambridgeshire & Peterborough Combined Authority is inviting tenders for the provision of local bus services in Cambridge, East Cambridgeshire, Fenland, Huntingdonshire, Peterborough, and South Cambridgeshire. The procurement process is currently at the tender stage with a deadline set for June 21, 2024. The contract period is scheduled to start on August 19, 2024, and will last until August 17, 2025.
