Tender description
This contract forms part of a strategy to improve the availability of passenger information and enhance passenger experience on the public transportation network. The successful contractor will therefore be required to supply and install a plate with a unique QR code at each individual marked bus stop within Kent. These codes will link to a unique page on the interactive map providing relevant bus stop information. This is a new activity for the authority, but strongly links to the existing Bus Stop Information & Infrastructure Management Contract (BSIIM) and ongoing maintenance of the plates is accounted for in the contract itself.
