    Brief

    York City Council is seeking qualified providers to deliver home to school transport services across multiple routes to maintained schools throughout York. The service will be delivered using buses of varying sizes and taxis to accommodate different route requirements and passenger numbers. The previous contract was divided into 7 lots with a total value of approximately £5.6 million (excluding VAT). While the council expects the overall contract value to remain similar in line with cost increases, the lot structure may be reorganized. The council is also considering incorporating some shared routes for Adult Social Care provision, which could increase the total contract value by an additional £400,000 (excluding VAT). Interested providers should be experienced in managing transport operations, meeting safeguarding requirements for school children, and coordinating services across multiple routes.
