Public Transport

The request was successful.

Dear Perth and Kinross Council,
Can you tell me when the current public transport contract for Stagecoach buses operating within PKC ends . I’d also be interested to know if the current contract has provision for default for contract non compliance and provision of performance statistics.

Yours faithfully,

Jim McMahon

Dear Jim

 

Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002

Request for Information – Public Transport Contract

 

I refer to your request for information dated 8 August 2022.

 

The information you requested was:-

 

 1. Can you tell me when the current public transport contract for
Stagecoach buses operating within PKC ends?

 

 2. I’d also be interested to know if the current contract has provision
for default for contract non compliance and provision of performance
statistics.

 

Response

 

Relative to the above, I am advised of the following:

 

 1. 31 March 2023

 

 2. The Conditions of Contracts under which the contracts are awarded,
contain clauses pertaining to contract compliance.  Stagecoach have to
advise the Council each time a subsidised journey does not operate or
operates late.  The Council log all these incidences and takes
appropriate action in line with the Conditions of Contract.

 

You have a right to request a review of the Council’s decision. Click

this. If you remain dissatisfied after the Council has carried out its
review, you can appeal [2]online to the Scottish Information Commissioner

 

Should you require any further explanation or assistance please do not
hesitate to contact me.

 

Yours sincerely
