You also can generate two alternative ways to run a trip, either by fastest time or shortest distance, to determine which option is best. In addition, you can select any number of approved stops, or any map points, including students’ pick up and drop off locations, in a geographic area to create a new trip and automatically sequence it based on optimal time or distance. Comprehensive data enable you to compare actual trip and student transportation information in relation to district policies.
