## Summary

Suffolk County Council Passenger Transport has successfully concluded the procurement process for a transport service from Haverhill to Riverwalk School in Bury St Edmunds. The contract, awarded to Cambridge and Huntingdon Airport Travel Service with a value of £203,775, was part of a mini competition under the Dynamic Purchasing System for Passenger Transport Services. This award was published on 31 March 2026, with the contract set to start on 13 April 2026 and run until 31 July 2029. The procurement, classified under CPV code 60000000, focused on transport services excluding waste transport, and covered the geographical areas of the United Kingdom and Europe, amongst others.

This contract presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in providing passenger transport services. Companies with expertise in managing school transport routes and possessing a fleet suitable for such services would stand to benefit. Although the procurement process did not specify suitability for SMEs or VCSEs, larger enterprises in the transport sector that can meet the service requirements consistently over the three-year contract period are likely to be well-suited to compete in similar future tenders offered by Suffolk County Council.
