PURCO SA Projects: UCT Transforms Campus Transport with Cutting-Edge Fleet Expansion

The University of Cape Town (UCT) is set to revolutionize campus transport with the introduction of state-of-the-art buses sourced from China and supplied by Bidvest. As part of a strategic move to enhance mobility, safety, and operational efficiency, UCT has issued a high-impact tender for an all-inclusive fleet maintenance leasing solution. This initiative aims to provide seamless, cost-effective, and sustainable transportation for students, faculty, and staff.

The selected service provider will oversee a comprehensive leasing model, ensuring that all financial, maintenance, and operational costs are integrated into a single, transparent framework. This approach will allow for better cost management, reduced downtime, and an enhanced commuter experience across academic, sporting, and social events.

Beyond just transport, UCT is looking for a forward-thinking mobility partner—one that will proactively identify risks, implement cutting-edge fleet technology, and introduce innovative solutions to keep the university ahead of evolving transport trends. The fleet will operate exclusively for UCT, ensuring that every mile traveled is dedicated to the university’s mission of academic excellence and student success.

With Bidvest’s expertise in fleet solutions and the global engineering advancements from China’s leading bus manufacturers, this collaboration marks a significant milestone in UCT’s journey toward a smarter, more efficient transport system.
