The Council wishes to provide bus services to provide links for communities either not served by the commercial bus network or not served by that network on particular days or at particular times of day. These bus services which are the subject of this Notice are in South Fife. South Fife is an area comprising, though not exclusively so, the boundaries of the former Dunfermline District Council. In general terms, this area is bounded by Kincardine, Saline, Kelty, Cardenden, Aberdour and the Forth Coast between Aberdour and Kincardine. The main urban centres are Dunfermline, Rosyth, Inverkeithing, Dalgety Bay, Cowdenbeath, Lochgelly, Cardenden, Kelty and Ballingry. Services may operate wholly within the South Fife area but are not limited by its boundaries and may operate further afield. On 20th February 2019, Fife Council confirmed to successful operators their place on the framework for the provision of South Fife Local Bus Services. Contracts initially awarded under the framework commenced on 19th August 2019 with an end date of 14th August 2022. Information about the award of the framework and contracts awarded under it was published on 7th March 2019 under references: MAR347581 OCID:ocds-r6ebe6-0000560754. This notice is to extend these existing contracts with the incumbent suppliers for a period of 12 months until 13th August 2023 for the reasons detailed in section IV of this notice. ## Lots (1) ### Lot 1: Untitled lot - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** complete - **CPV codes:** 60112000 - **Delivery regions:** UKM - **Description:** These contracts are an extension of the existing contracts for the supply of local bus services in South Fife: SF/89-1 North Queensferry – Duloch Park – Dunfermline – Crossford SF/8783 Dunfermline – Duloch Park – Dalgety Bay – North Queensferry / Dal... ## Awards & Winning Suppliers (2) - **Award:** 002342-2022-11195-1 (active) - Supplier(s): **Bay Travel, Stagecoach East Scotland** - Supplier identifiers: `GB-FTS-13687`, `GB-FTS-5262` - Value: £1,260,361 † (exc.
