Tender description
The University of Southampton are seeking a Contractor to provide and operate our Uni-Link bus network, and to build upon the successful operation that has been delivered to date. The University have operated the Uni-Link bus network since 2001, as a means to transport students between University teaching campuses and halls of residence. The network has grown since its inception, and routes have expanded to connect other key destinations in Southampton such as the city centre, railways stations, and ferry terminal. There are 4 existing bus routes. Although it remains focussed on student travel, Uni-Link services cater for staff commuting trips and forms an important part of the University Travel Plan. The nature of the University activities is such that demand for bus travel will fluctuate during the day (morning & afternoon) and throughout the year. The contractor will be expected to provide a flexible operation to accommodate changes in demand.
