Description

As part of the Department for Transport (DfT) sponsored Total Transport Projects, North Lincolnshire Council developed a pilot project to test the viability and feasibility of demand responsive bus services in the more rural parts of the authority's area. The contract to operate the services is due to expire shortly (March 2019) and the Council is keen to consider what other options might be open to it. The purpose of this PMC is to ask the market what it considers might be alternative operating solutions to manage and run the Call Connect Demand Responsive Transport (DRT) services including but not restricted to the hours of operation, the makeup of the areas covered, the way the services could be marketed, the types of vehicles operated and how passengers could book travel.
