## Summary

Surrey County Council procured specialist passenger transport services for SEND clients travelling to Arbour Vale. The requirement covers one passenger from Ashford and one passenger from Staines, with two passengers in total. The route requires a wheelchair-accessible vehicle and a passenger assistant (PA). The PA must have gastrostomy awareness. This is a local authority transport service rather than general passenger transport, so it is relevant to operators able to provide accessible vehicles, assisted journeys and appropriately trained staff for children or passengers with special educational needs and disabilities. The procurement is classified as transport services and is associated with Surrey County Council’s client transport provision.

The procurement has been completed following a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. One lot was awarded to County Cabs Limited. The award was made on 10 August 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. The contract is active from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its gross and stated value is £60,653.57. The awarded service covers the SEND transport requirement for Arbour Vale, involving the two specified passengers and the associated accessible vehicle and passenger-assistant provision. This outcome records a completed award rather than an opportunity to submit a tender, and identifies the council’s selected supplier for this route.

This award demonstrates demand from Surrey County Council for dedicated SEND transport on an individual route, delivered by a smaller supplier through a limited competition. A credible future competitor would need to operate or access a wheelchair-accessible vehicle, provide reliable transport for two passengers, and supply a PA for the journey. Staff capability in gastrostomy awareness is a specific service requirement, so operators should be able to evidence suitable training, safeguarding practice and experience supporting passengers with additional needs. Local knowledge of Ashford, Staines and Arbour Vale, dependable scheduling, and the capacity to deliver assisted passenger transport would strengthen a supplier’s position when this type of council requirement is next considered.
