About

Nottingham City Council awarded a contract to Nottingham City Transport for the supply of Schoollink bus services A1 and A2.

These services operate on weekdays during school term time only, with each service running once in the morning and once in the afternoon to carry school children on set routes between residential areas and several schools within the city.

The services are also available to the general public and must be registered with the Traffic Commissioner.

Service A2 requires two vehicles in tandem, while service A1 requires one vehicle.

The supplier provides three diesel-powered double-deck vehicles, each with a minimum seating capacity of 75, and garages them on their own premises.

The contract operates under a Minimum Subsidy based model, where the supplier retains fare revenue and invoices the Council every four weeks for the net operating cost.

The contract value is £323,460.
