contract or purchase(s): English Heritage is
developing a project for a new approach to visitor facilities and management
at the Stonehenge World Heritage site, Transit System (VTS)
will be required to transport visitors in each direction between the new
visitor centre and one or more drop-off points, over a route length of
approximately 2 km with gradients of up to 5 %. The route is mainly over an
existing road (the A344), which will no longer be open to general traffic.
Complete segregation is unlikely to be feasible and the road may need to be
shared with pedestrians and cyclists. The peak design load is 850 passengers
per direction per hr. Because of the extreme sensitivity of the World
Heritage landscape the system must cause minimal physical, visual, and noise
intrusion. The system will provide a high quality journey experience for
passengers, with onboard interpretation facilities, and carriages that can be
covered and will be suitable in a variety of weather conditions. Each VTS
unit must include access for wheelchair users and those with other
disabilities. Low emission fuels and efficient power systems are required for
sustainability reasons and because the system will pick up/drop off adjacent
to the visitor centre building and the stones. The system will need to be
proven in full commercial operation, accord fully with relevant Expressions of interest
are sought from suppliers who can design, build, and maintain suitable
systems. If opportunities exist for extending the scope of the contract to
include operations and finance these will be viewed favourably as the
preference is to sub- contract/lease the entire VTS operation. The contractor

transit system designs in co-operation with the wider project team; supply

normal visiting hours, and must be capable of operation after dark. It should
also be noted that the road will be used from time to time by agricultural
vehicles. Respondents should
indicate the types and characteristics of systems they propose, and how they
fit the requirements set out above. Preliminary indications of costs, subject
to detailed design, will be required at this stage. Respondents should also
demonstrate their experience of designing and providing transit systems in
similar applications, and should indicate the nature of the contract they
would be able to enter in respect of the system(s) they propose. The use of third party
