## Summary

The Highland Council is currently conducting the "School and Public Transport 2016" procurement process aimed at providing home to school transport services. The contract covers various routes within the Highlands and Islands region, running from 1st January 2017 to 31st December 2021, with an option for a 12-month extension. The procurement method employed is an open procedure, and interested suppliers are encouraged to submit their proposals by 19th August 2016.
