## Summary

Leicester City Council procured passenger transport services for a journey identified as “Milgate”. The requirement is described as transport services, with the procurement classification covering taxi services and passenger vehicles hired with a driver. The delivery location is in the East Midlands. The council is the buyer, and the service is specific to the stated journey rather than a broader transport programme.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to hansom airport taxis on 16 October 2026. The award value is £15,093. The contract period runs from 26 October 2026 to 31 July 2028. The council used a mini-competition under its Dynamic Purchasing System for Passenger Transport Services. The tender deadline was 16 October 2026. The opportunity was classified as a services contract; no lot breakdown or evaluation criteria are set out in the available process details.

This award shows Leicester City Council buys journey-specific passenger transport through mini-competitions under its passenger transport Dynamic Purchasing System. A credible competitor for a similar requirement would need to provide taxi or other passenger transport vehicles with drivers and be able to serve the specified journey. The selected supplier was a large business, so this particular award does not demonstrate that the requirement was suited to smaller businesses. The procurement provides evidence of demand for contracted passenger transport from the council, but does not establish further qualification, accreditation, fleet-size or service-level requirements.
