Description

A decision was made on the 14th of March 2024 by Tracy Brabin, the Mayor of West Yorkshire, to bring buses back under local control in the biggest shake-up of the region's transport network in decades. Since then, the West Yorkshire Combined Authority (WYCA) has engaged with bus operators, and will continue to do so until the tender opportunities are launches between August and October 2025. Current engagement is helping WYCA confirm its commercial positions. At the time of publication of this notice, WYCA envisages 9 baskets of contracts based on geographic areas (these baskets of varying numbers of contracts based on size and complexity), let in three procurement rounds from Q4 2025 to Q8 2027
