## Summary

Sunderland College is currently in the tender stage of the procurement process for the "Provision of Student Transport Services", seeking bids for transport solutions that will facilitate travel for students across its four campuses located in the North East of England.

## Notice

Sunderland College is seeking a student transport service provision to provide learners with the ability and facility to travel within 1/2 mile to and from its 4 campuses. As a minimum, students will be travelling from home to the main campuses, at various times, usually with a return journey later in the day during term time only. The College is looking for the best value for money solutions and would therefore welcome alternative proposals (such as travel passes) for the respective routes to be covered, their relevant route timetables, and all related costs.
