As part of the introduction of the Weaver Network in West Yorkshire, the Combined Authority intends that electric buses will operate from the Huddersfield Depot for the purposes of providing local services under the West Yorkshire bus franchising scheme. The Combined Authority is currently negotiating purchase of depots, but the Operator is likely to have exclusive access to the depot prior to franchised services commencing and the Combined Authority requires that the Operator procure the electrification works at the Depot to be in place prior to that. As a result, the Combined Authority intends to fund the electrification of the depot from the Joint Air Quality Unit and West Yorkshire Transport Fund. Whilst the Combined Authority has agreed to grant fund this electrification, it acknowledges that, as the works will ultimately benefit the Combined Authority the funding agreement could be viewed as a Works contract, and therefore the Combined Authority has chosen to comply with the Procurement Act 2023 in procuring the funding and delivery of these Works. The works consist of Electrification works. Direct award justification Single supplier - intellectual property or exclusive right
