Route optimization is essential for getting students to school safely and on time. Orbit Software Incorporated understands this, which is why we've created a smart way to plan bus travel. With our software, you can ensure each school bus takes the best path. This means no more long rides or wasted fuel. School bus route optimization makes the journey smooth, quick, and safe. Driving becomes simpler, and schools can save money. Trust us to guide your school buses along the best routes every day.
Route optimization needs careful planning, and we make it easier. Our bus route optimization solutions are about finding better ways for school buses to travel. This means they pick up and drop off students using well-thought-out paths that save time and money. First, our software helps to analyze and improve your routing inefficiencies. Bus route fleet optimization is creating hypothetical bus routes using your current student stop locations, school assignments, bell times, maximum busloads, and student ride times to increase the efficiency of student transportation. With our bus scheduling software, bus routes are smartly designed to meet the needs of each school. Using selected criteria, the BusBoss Route Fleet Optimization tool automatically generates optimal routes for individual or combined schools. These routes may be analyzed by comparing your current route costs to the optimized ones. Our tool considers the details, like where students live and the size of the buses. It considers the student's geocoded address points, turn restrictions by school bus size, height and weight restrictions for each road segment, and forced right-sided pickups specific to particular grades. When it comes to bus routing, our Auto-create Stop Locations tool helps by picking the best places for students to wait for the bus, considering things like safety and how far they need to walk.
School bus route optimization also means considering how much it costs to run each bus. Our Route Optimization tool analyzes your current routes and generates hypothetical routes by providing complete bus schedules, passenger lists, and route driving instructions. We make sure that the optimized bus routes aren't just safer and quicker but also consider important things like how many kids can sit safely on a bus, how long they travel, and the types of roads they use. For example, GPS for bus drivers helps to avoid roads that aren't good for buses or create routes that pick up kids on the right side of the street. Lastly, we aim for efficiency – reducing the number of buses and drivers needed. By using the Orbit bus schedule to assess and adjust individual routes, we strive to make school bus travel as efficient and cost-effective as possible.
