About

Cheshire and Warrington Combined Authority (CWCA) is seeking suitably qualified consultants to support the design of its future transport operating model. The authority, recently established and required to discharge statutory transport responsibilities alongside a broader strategic role enabled through its devolution deal, requires a detailed, function-by-function assessment of transport responsibilities that leads to clear, costed and deliverable recommendations and culminates in options for coherent and integrated operating models. Outputs must be sufficiently detailed to enable the Combined Authority to proceed directly to implementation and decision-making; high-level or purely strategic outputs will not be sufficient.
