Swindon Borough Council invites tenders from suitably qualified and experienced contractors for the provision new bus shelters to service 27 bus stops on a new public transport interchange for Swindon town centre. The redevelopment of Fleming Way is part of the wider town centre regeneration works and aims to create one inclusive bus interchange that will accommodate all bus services in the town centre.

The bus shelters must be of high quality, contemporary but simple design, and something for Swindon to be proud of.
The bus shelters should be as environmentally friendly as possible in their manufacture, materials and whole life costs.
