II.2.4) Description of the procurement
Conwy County Borough Council (CCBC) in partnership with Welsh Government (WG) and Transport for Wales (TfW) are intending to pilot an innovative solution to the provision of socially necessary transport services in an area of low population density.
The intention is to replace a number of registered local bus services with an integrated responsive transport (IRT) solution that will require journeys to be pre-booked.
The IRT service will be operated in the areas mainly based on the historic catchment area of the market town of Llanrwst. The areas will be split into five zones with the furthest point from Llanrwst being Corwen (26 miles).
Passengers who have booked to use the service can be picked up and dropped off at any recognised bus stop within the area of operation or can be picked up and set down at a virtual bus stop. Virtual bus stops would be identified as a safe stopping point at a location suitable for the bus to operate to, as close as possible to the passenger’s desired pick up point.
The service will be operated on demand between the hours of 07:00 and 19:00 on Mondays to Saturdays (excluding public holidays). The routes of journeys will operate dynamically, as demand from passengers will dictate the routes operated.
