InterCity West Coast draft invitation to tender (ITT) consultation
Detail of outcome
This consultation was superseded by the new rail franchising programme that commenced in 2013.
Original consultation
Consultation description
The InterCity West Coast franchise is expected to commence on 9 December 2012. The department is seeking comments on:
- the proposed train service requirement
- the proposition that we should not have a business case on the change from the more detailed specification but would instead assess the affordability, benefits and costs of the proposed franchise at a later stage
This consultation will be conducted in line with the government’s code of practice on consultations and the criteria outlined in section 8 of the original InterCity West Coast consultation document.
