The services shall cover all the phases of the delivery of new and/or enhanced bus depot facilities, to support the operation of public bus services in Ireland from concept design/site selection/due diligence/planning all the way through to oversight of construction works. National policies and strategies for the decarbonisation of the transport system includes plans to significantly expand bus services and transition the bus and coach fleet away from diesel fuelled buses to zero emission technologies. In order to support both the expansion and transition to zero emission buses, it is necessary for the Authority to consider the supporting bus depot facilities that are required to deliver an efficient and effective bus system. The current level of bus depot provision will require significant expansion. It will be necessary to ensure adequate provision of electric charging infrastructure at depot locations while also considering the appropriate location of depots to reduce the impact of out of service mileage on the operation of electric bus fleets. It is intended that the Framework Agreement shall be in place for an initial period of four (4) years with the option for the Authority to extend on an annual basis for up to two (2) additional years. The estimated value of this Framework Agreement is €45,000,000. The maximum value of this Framework Agreement is €60,000,000.
