The contract term will be for 5 years and cover the currently planned purchase of two vehicles for delivery in the financial years of 23/24 and 27/28 along with scope for a third, as a contingency against the unexpected loss or unrepairable damage to a current vehicle. This is based on our rolling programme of replacement as vehicles approach their projected end of life dates.
