About
Cheshire West and Chester Borough Council awarded a contract to CoachScanner for the launch of a Demand Responsive Transport (DRT) public bus service serving the rural area surrounding Frodsham & Helsby.
The pilot service, funded by the Rural Mobility Fund, introduced three new accessible vehicles and primarily used an app-based booking system to provide flexible transport options for areas lacking existing bus services.
The service aimed to complement existing services and attract new users, particularly younger people, through branding and marketing.
It also sought to integrate with local Community Transport projects and the Council's in-house fleet following 'Total Transport' principles.
The contract value was AUD 861,000.
