Across the region, bus journeys are used to connect people to work, schools, universities and colleges and to the shops and leisure activities. The bus network therefore forms a key part of the region's infrastructure.\nOn 25 April 2023, LCRCA published an Assessment on Bus Franchising in the Liverpool City Region which sets out the proposed bus Franchising Scheme in accordance with the Transport Act. \nIn October 2023, the Liverpool City Region Mayor made a Franchising Scheme covering the Liverpool City Region. Franchising is to be introduced over a number of tranches of procurement. with the whole of the Liverpool City Region due to be franchised by the end of 2027 .\nTo support the transition to franchising, the Combined Authority has taken the decision to procure the required bus fleets itself, such that any bidder selected to operate the franchised lots will have access to use a relevant portion of the region's fleet.\nLCRCA will be seeking to procure a variety of vehicles (350+) across multiple lots, likely to include diesel and electric in a mix of midi, single, and double decker sizes.\nLCRCA will be seeking a staggered vehicle delivery, starting from April 2027. \nTo support a transition to a zero emission fleet, all diesel buses must adhere to the Euro VI standard, being the highest bus emission standard currently available for diesel buses. LCRCA would welcome vehicles which can be repowered in their lifetime. Vehicles must be of a right-hand drive design, meet the requirements of the Public Service Vehicle Accessibility Regulations 2000 https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2000/1970/contents where the dimensions and capacity of the vehicle require them to do so. \nIt should also be noted that the Government has specified in the National Bus Strategy for England https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/bus-back-better (page 58) that any buses funded by Government must provide an enhanced level of accessibility, as well as induction loops and audio-visual route and next stop information. \nAll vehicles must confirm to all relevant current legislation and take account of any known forthcoming legislative changes.\nLCRCA aims to publish an Invitation to Tender within the next two months, with a 4 week tender period. This will be published on the Procurement Portal The Chest www.the-chest.org.uk and relevant notices published on Find a Tender. LCRCA are planning to use an Open Procedure and estimate that the contract(s) will be awarded at the start of April 2026.\nThis notice is for information only.

In October 2023, the Liverpool City Region Mayor made the decision to introduce a Franchising Scheme covering the Liverpool City Region. Franchising is a legal model where buses are under the control of a public sector authority (LCRCA) who set the routes, frequency, fares and overall standard of buses in the region. The existing commercially led market will be replaced and private bus operators will no longer be able to run most services independently. Instead, bus services will be operated under franchise contracts and bus operators will bid to run the services through a competitive procurement process managed by the Combined Authority. LCRCA intend to introduce the second Tranche of franchised bus services from September 2027, covering Liverpool, Sefton and Knowsley. This follows the first Tranche of franchised bus services introduced in September 2026 covering St Helens and the Wirral. For Category 1 franchise contracts, LCRCA will provide the successful operator with a fleet of vehicles which the operator will then operate, manage and maintain the fleet throughout the franchise term.

journeys taken across the Combined Authority area. Across the region, bus journeys are used to connect people to work, schools, universities and colleges and to the shops and leisure activities. The bus network therefore forms a key part of the region's infrastructure.\nOn 25 April 2023, LCRCA published an Assessment on Bus Franchising in the Liverpool City Region which sets out the proposed bus Franchising Scheme in accordance with the Transport Act. \nIn October 2023, the Liverpool City Region Mayor made a Franchising Scheme covering the Liverpool City Region. Franchising is to be introduced over a number of tranches of procurement. with the whole of the Liverpool City Region due to be franchised by the end of 2027 .\nTo support the transition to franchising, the Combined Authority has taken the decision to procure the required bus fleets itself, such that any bidder selected to operate the franchised lots will have access to use a relevant portion of the region's fleet.\nLCRCA will be seeking to procure a variety of vehicles (350+) across multiple lots, likely to include diesel and electric in a mix of midi, single, and double decker sizes.\nLCRCA will be seeking a staggered vehicle delivery, starting from April 2027. \nTo support a transition to a zero emission fleet, all diesel buses must adhere to the Euro VI standard, being the highest bus emission standard currently available for diesel buses. LCRCA would welcome vehicles which can be repowered in their lifetime. Vehicles must be of a right-hand drive design, meet the requirements of the Public Service Vehicle Accessibility Regulations 2000 https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2000/1970/contents where the dimensions and capacity of the vehicle require them to do so. \nIt should also be noted that the Government has specified in the National Bus Strategy for England https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/bus-back-better (page 58) that any buses funded by Government must provide an enhanced level of accessibility, as well as induction loops and audio-visual route and next stop information. \nAll vehicles must confirm to all relevant current legislation and take account of any known forthcoming legislative changes.\nLCRCA aims to publish an Invitation to Tender within the next two months, with a 4 week tender period. This will be published on the Procurement Portal The Chest www.the-chest.org.uk and relevant notices published on Find a Tender. LCRCA are planning to use an Open Procedure and estimate that the contract(s) will be awarded at the start of April 2026.\nThis notice is for information only. Further details will be available when the Contract Notice is published. \nAt this time, we are not asking for expressions of interest or responses to this Planned Procurement notice." }, { "releaseID": "012075-2026", "releaseDate": "2026-02-10T16:07:16Z", "releaseTag": [ "tender" ], "value": "In April 2023, Liverpool City Region Combined Authority (LCRCA) published an Assessment on Bus Franchising in the Liverpool City Region, which set out a proposed bus Franchising Scheme in accordance with the Transport Act 2000. In October 2023, the Liverpool City Region Mayor made the decision to introduce a Franchising Scheme covering the Liverpool City Region. Franchising is a legal model where buses are under the control of a public sector authority (LCRCA) who set the routes, frequency, fares and overall standard of buses in the region. The existing commercially led market will be replaced and private bus operators will no longer be able to run most services independently. Instead, bus services will be operated under franchise contracts and bus operators will bid to run the services through a competitive procurement process managed by the Combined Authority. LCRCA intend to introduce the second Tranche of franchised bus services from September 2027, covering Liverpool, Sefton and Knowsley. This follows the first Tranche of franchised bus services introduced in September 2026 covering St Helens and the Wirral. For Category 1 franchise contracts, LCRCA will provide the successful operator with a fleet of vehicles which the operator will then operate, manage and maintain the fleet throughout the franchise term. In preparation for the commencement of the Tranche 2 bus franchising programme in September 2027, LCRCA wish to procure a fleet of new vehicles including diesel and electric vehicles. A number of double-decker, single-decker and midi-sized buses are required to be delivered in May 2027 ahead of the commencement date of franchised services." } ], "status": [ { "releaseID":
