The brief

West Lancashire Borough Council invites tenders for the inspection of Hackney Carriages and Private Hire vehicles in accordance with the details contained in the Contract.

The majority of Hackney Carriages and Private Hire vehicles are operated from Skelmersdale and Ormskirk/Burscough.

Therefore, the Council is seeking to appoint one Garage Owner whose Garage Site proposed for this contract is in the Skelmersdale area and another Garage Owner whose Garage Site proposed for this contract is in the Ormskirk/Burscough area.

As the term implies, HC and PHV are vehicles used for hire and reward purposes and as such are subject to much higher annual mileages and more arduous driving than normal private vehicles.

Therefore, in the interests of passenger and other road user's safety, a more stringent maintenance and testing regime is required.

All licensed vehicles must meet the requirements of the MOT Inspection Manual and the items contained in the Contract document.

The Contract value is an estimate only and covers two garages for a period of three years.
