C.1. Special Requirements for Shuttle Bus Operations

Contractor will provide Shuttle Bus Service between the outside upper parking areas and work areas inside the mine. Bus routes are not fixed but must include stops in all areas in reasonable proximity to existing work centers. Buses will make continuous circuits during service hours, particularly during afternoons, and stop only to drop off onboard passengers or pick up passengers already waiting at the bus stop or who are visibly making their way to the bus stop.

Shuttle Vehicle Description: Shuttle service consists of two standard, i.e., school bus-type, buses with seating capacity of approximately 26-28 passengers and one ADA-compliant low-floor bus of approximately 12-14 passenger capacity, equipped with retractable ramp able to be used by persons riding in wheelchairs and/or using mobility-assistive devices such as canes or walkers.

Hours of Operation: All three vehicles will operate weekdays Monday through Friday except Federal holidays during the hours of 5:30 – 9:00am and 2:30 – 6:15 pm. NOTE: The last run carrying passengers out of the mine must not depart until 6:10pm so as to accommodate persons whose work hours end at 6:00pm. In addition, one school bus-type shuttle will operate between 10:00 and 11:30pm. Any deviations to this schedule including extra hours for shuttle bus service on workdays on early departure workdays will be provided in advance.

Any requirements for shuttle operation for OPM activities in addition to those described in this section must be approved in advance by Boyers Contracting Group and Iron Mountain’s Business Manager or their designees.

Period of Performance: October 1 through September 30 for each Fiscal Year (FY) listed or portion thereof designated by the Contracting Officer.

Pricing will remain unchanged during the base fiscal year. Proposed changes must be submitted in writing to the contracting officer not less than thirty (30) days in advance of the proposed effective date.
