    Brief

    Somerset Council is seeking solutions for a demand-responsive transport system that provides flexible, efficient public transportation services. This opportunity invites suppliers and service providers to develop or implement transport systems that dynamically adjust routes and schedules based on real-time passenger demand rather than fixed timetables. The system should improve accessibility, reduce operational costs, and enhance service coverage in rural and underserved areas. Interested parties should have experience in transport technology, logistics optimization, or service delivery models that can integrate with existing infrastructure and meet the council's operational requirements.
