Description

Strathclyde Partnership for Transport (SPT) currently manages bus shelters on behalf of 10 Councils in the SPT area and as part of these agency arrangements we are looking to procure a contractor to be responsible for the cleaning and inspection of 3,300+ bus shelters, on a variety of cycles, to retain the shelters in a clean condition and establish an information flow relating to damage. In seven council areas the shelters are washed and inspected monthly, in one council area the shelters are washed every 2 months and in two council areas the shelters are washed every 3 months; however these frequencies may change throughout the contract period. In addition, SPT owns over 13,800+ bus stop pole mounted information cases located at around 9,760+ bus stops throughout 12 Council areas which require regular programmed cleaning and reporting of damage to SPT via an established reporting procedure. The bus stop poles and flags will also be cleaned and inspected at these visits. A requirement of the cleaning is to open the information cases and clean inside.
