NCC202600068 - Local school season ticket purchases on commercial bus services to all secondary schools

Purchase of season tickets on existing commercial bus services serving five secondary schools: St Josephs, Bassaleg, LLanwern, John Frost, and Ysgol Gyfun Gwent Iscoed. These services operate as public transport, accommodating both fare-paying passengers and pupils ineligible for free transport. The arrangement is a direct award due to the lack of alternative registered commercial operators on these specific routes.
