Description

Lancashire County Council has approximately 795 bus shelters that come under its direct ownership and responsibility. Bus shelters are spread over both urban and rural settings covering all 12 districts of Lancashire. The Council is procuring a contractor for the supply, installation, maintenance and repair of bus shelters across the Lancashire region. The contract will be for an initial term of 2 years, with the option to extend for up to a further 2 years.

There is an initial requirement to install approximately 32 new replacement bus shelters per annum. The number of replacements will likely increase over the contract term as a schedule of replacements is further developed and refined with the successful contractor. The new bus shelters will be of varying size but will be required to meet set design criteria and standards which will be further detailed in the Scope.

As well as installation of new bus shelters, the contractor will be required to provide maintenance of bus shelters on a reactive basis as and when the Council requires. Reactive maintenance includes call-outs to replace side or roof panels, make safe broken glass or structural damage, fix lighting, and undertake cleaning as required.

The procurement will be undertaken using the Open Procedure.
