Campus Shuttle Bus Service
This is a contract result notice, not an open opportunity. Details from the official award data.
This is a large award for Transport Services — above three-quarters of comparable contracts. Based on 20,160 valued Transport Services tenders in our corpus.
The main purpose of this Contract is for the provision of a shuttle bus service operating between the University's two main campuses that are Canterbury and Medway.
This service operates during the academic term times and is for the students and staff of the University of Kent.
This service provision may be extended to other partnering Universities in the future, in the Canterbury and Medway geographical area (subject to further discussion and negotiation with the successful Contractor).
The Service Provider must hold a valid Public Service Operators Licence and provide suitable coaches with competent and trained drivers to operate this service.
The Service shall consist of suitably sized coaches to run concurrently from each campus daily operating a day, evening and weekend service accommodating the booking demands for every journey. (The present service consists of two 29 seater coaches and a 52 seater operating as and when the demand requires).
The Service Provider is expected to be proactive in monitoring the demand times and to be flexible in the supply of service by accommodating the peak demand times with a larger vehicle when necessary.
