BUZZ 42 Bus Service
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.
Reading Borough Council (RBC) is inviting tenders from qualified operators for the provision of the BUZZ 42 public Bus Service.
The current service runs from Kenavon Drive to Rivermead and operates Monday to Saturday, from 0600 (0700 on Saturday) to 1915 (approx.).
The current service and timetable represent the base service for the contract is the minimum level of service to be provided by the operator.
RBC has secured funding to deliver an enhanced Buzz 42 service as part of its Bus Service Improvement Plan (BSIP).
The enhanced service will consist of an extended route to include additional stops in Tilehurst, a more frequent service that includes a Sunday service.
It is anticipated that the enhanced service will be delivered using either a two or three bus timetable and therefore this tender is offered over 2 Lots to cover both options.
Bidders are encouraged to bid for both Lots.
The value of the contract will depend on the level of funding secured and the take up of options.
