Budget estimate

$750,000 – $1,050,000

Based on the document, the estimated annual cost for transportation services is approximately $300,000. The contract will be for a period of three years, so the total estimated cost for the contract would be around $900,000. However, this is just an estimate, and the actual cost may vary depending on the services provided and the rates charged by the contractor. The factors that may influence the likely payment range include the number of trips, the type of buses required, and the rates charged by the contractor. The low end of the estimate could be around $750,000, assuming a lower number of trips and lower rates, while the high end could be around $1,050,000, assuming a higher number of trips and higher rates.
