ANALYSIS PREVIEW
Opportunity intelligence at a glance
East Sussex County Council is seeking a transport service for a saloon vehicle route from TN6 2TR to Bricklehurst Manor School, TN5 7EL, with a passenger assistant. The route operates Monday to Friday, with stated school times. The notice is open and uses a selective/restricted procedure.
Who this may suit
Best suited to passenger-transport providers able to provide a saloon vehicle and passenger assistant for the stated school route and timetable. Vehicle wording is inconsistent: the title refers to taxi and MPV (1–8 seats), while the description specifies a saloon.
