## Summary

Angus Council is planning to tender contracts for the "Provision of School Transport Services" scheduled for March 2017. This initiative will cover local bus services and school transport for children in nursery, primary, secondary, and special needs schools across Angus, extending to some locations in Dundee. The total value of the contracts is estimated at £10,000,000, and the planned procurement process is set to culminate in an award period beginning on 8th May 2017. Interested parties can submit their proposals electronically, and the deadline for expression of interest is 31st March 2017.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in transport services, including local bus companies, taxi services, and private hire firms.
