Through this Contract the Council is seeking high quality, safe and secure bus passenger waiting facilities, that are kept clean and well maintained throughout the Contract term, to encourage passenger growth, supporting our successful Transforming Cities Fund (TCF) programmes, and helping achieve the aspirations of the National Bus Strategy and the Council’s Greater Nottingham Bus Service Improvement Plan that the new Greater Nottingham Bus Partnership (A New Greater Nottingham Bus Partnership – Transport Nottingham) is working to.
In return, the Council is offering the Concessionaire the advertising display rights associated with its City-wide network of bus shelters. The rights available will allow for the operation of all Advertising Display Screens on all ‘Advertising Shelters’ within the administrative boundary of Nottingham City Council. The citywide map is presented at Appendix 1. The Concessionaire will have the right to install, operate and further develop the current concession of City Centre Free-Standing Units (FSUs), which can be located using the city centre map at Appendix 2, whilst Appendix 3 has a table detailing the location of every existing FSU and some information about the asset. Appendix 4 lists all the Bus Shelter locations that are to be retained under the new contract. Appendix 5 provides a list of Bus Shelter locations that will no longer require a Bus Shelter. Appendix 6 is a map showing all the assets located across the whole city area, which each asset type denoted by colour. Note that this map was updated several months ago and there may be a small number of inaccuracies, so the table should be referred to and cross referenced to where required.
