## Summary

The City of London Corporation procured termly home-to-school transport on the Banstead bus route. The requirement is the provision and operation of a bus service for the 2026–27 school year, supporting travel between homes and school for pupils using the Banstead route. The main procurement category is transport services, with the published classification referring to bus station services. Delivery is centred on Banstead, Surrey, rather than a general city-wide transport service. The buyer is The Mayor and Commonalty and Citizens of the City of London, which used Vectare as its transport partner to manage the procurement. This opportunity is therefore relevant to operators with experience providing scheduled or contracted school transport, managing route delivery and meeting the practical needs of term-time passenger services.

This procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. It consisted of one lot. BANSTEAD COACHES LIMITED was selected, and the award is active. The contract was signed on 26 August 2026 and runs from 1 September 2026 to 1 July 2027. Its gross value is £75,924. The contract is below the applicable threshold. The available procurement information identifies the route and service requirement but does not set out a separate scoring breakdown or detailed eligibility conditions. The award covers the Banstead route and the contract period stated above. The process was managed by Vectare on behalf of the City of London Corporation, giving the outcome a clear route-specific and buyer-specific context for businesses monitoring comparable school transport requirements.

This award provides a useful benchmark for operators competing for comparable City of London Corporation school transport work. A credible supplier would need to run a reliable term-time bus service on the Banstead route, organise vehicles and drivers for regular pupil travel, and maintain continuity throughout the school year. Relevant strengths include established local operating capacity around Banstead, practical route planning, dependable day-to-day dispatch and the ability to work with a transport partner managing the procurement. Businesses with experience in contracted home-to-school or other scheduled passenger services would be well placed to assess similar requirements. The selected supplier is a large coach operator, indicating that the buyer’s requirement can suit a provider with sufficient operational scale and resilience for a dedicated route.
