Description
The Council currently has 114 licensed Hackney Carriage vehicles and 85 licensed Private Hire vehicles. Each of these will require 2 vehicle tests a year with one of these tests being combined with an MOT, and possibly retests. In addition to this, enforcement work may result in vehicles requiring ‘spot checks’, meter or accident damage checks.The inspections, any retests, meter checks, some spot checks (depending on reason) and accident damage checks are paid for by the licence holder concerned and in some enforcement situations tests are paid for by the Council, as part of its enforcement responsibilities.
Tenders are invited for the provision of garage services for the inspection and testing of Hackney Carriage and Private Hire vehicles, as defined in the Specification document.
The Council intends to issue contracts for testing and inspection to two separate bidders. This is intended to offer flexibility to the vehicle owners and help ensure standards remain competitive. It is up to the vehicle owners / drivers to decide which of the successful bidders they wish to use.
