Busway: Luton: Dunstable : Houghton Regis Business Case

On 3 September 2008 the DfT wrote to Luton Borough Council (LBC) awarding Conditional
Approval, and setting out the Conditions under which Full Approval would be awarded. This
included submission of the following information in support of its application for Full
Approval:
• Confirmation that the scheme remains unaltered.
• Confirmation of the total scheme costs, the Government contribution, and
availability of other financial contributions.
• Further details of the Project Management arrangements.
• Details of the Tendering exercise and any resulting changes.
• Confirmation that operators are committed to provision of services, together with
details of any contractual agreements that are either in place or being developed.
1.1.2 Since Conditional Approval, the scheme has entered the Delivery phase and LBC is now
seeking Full Approval in order that the scheme can be implemented in accordance with the
programme set out at Chapter 6.
1.1.3 The route of the Busway, as shown in Figure 2.1, has not changed since the Conditional
Approval submission. It should be noted, however, that the scheme will be delivered through
a number of different contractual arrangements set out in Table 1.1 below:
