Description

UKAEA is keen to promote the use of sustainable transport to reduce the number of vehicles accessing the site and to this end is developing an autonomously driven shuttle bus from the nearby Culham railway station to the site at certain times of the day. Development of this technology is some way off and so in the meantime UKAEA wishes to hire a bus with a driver that will fulfil this function and help to establish the feasibility of this facility
