Other Information

Existing TransPennine Express CCTV assets have significantly exceeded their 15-year asset life expectancy and are now all exhibiting age-related problems with increasing failures that are impacting the operational safety, service quality and passenger experience across the network. Some stations have experienced complete failure of all CCTV cameras and systems and with excessive lead times for legacy parts, this is not an acceptable scenario for any modern UK railway station. The majority of TPE CCTV cameras are analogue and have therefore have low-resolution image quality and below that expected and needed by TPE and its stakeholders. Modern IP cameras have vastly superior image quality and range including the ability to offer leading edge innovations such as video analytics and artificial intelligence applications. ** PREVIEW NOTICE, please check Find a Tender for full details. ** All references to "FirstGroup Holdings Limited"/"FGH" in this document refer to First Transpennine Express Limited (TPE), However passenger services on the TPE network after 28 May 2023 will be provided by "TRANSPENNINE TRAINS LIMITED"/"TPT", Company Number 12544930 ("OLR Operator") a wholly owned subsidiary of DfT OLR Holdings Limited ("DOHL") in fulfillment of the Secretary of State's ("the SoS") duty pursuant to section 30 of the Railways Act 1993.
