The University of Chester awarded a contract to Stagecoach Merseyside & South Lancashire for the provision of safe and reliable transportation of university staff and student passengers between the Parkgate Road Campus in Chester (CH1 4BJ) and the Thornton Science Park Campus in Ince (CH2 4NU).

The contract was awarded based on a weighted criteria of price (whole-life cost) at 70% and quality at 30%.

The initial term was for 12 months with options to extend for up to three further 12-month periods, subject to satisfactory performance, though the stated contract value of £145,000 covers only the original term until 01/01/2018 and excludes extension options.

The university intended to appoint one contractor but reserved the right to appoint more than one if needed for optimal service delivery, and no guarantee was given regarding service volumes.
