Public transport

This section manages stops and routes, assigns routes to vehicles and tracks schedule adherence.

The public-transport map

Open it from Monitor → Public transport or at /transport.

Layers

The Public transport layers block in the sidebar:

Layer	What it shows
Stops	Stop locations
Routes	Route lines
Vehicles	Vehicles assigned to routes

Each layer has Show layer / Hide layer and Add icons. The Search… field covers stops and routes at once; with no matches: "Nothing matches your search."

Tool	Hint
Select	Click a stop, route or vehicle to inspect it
Add stop	Click the map to place a new stop
Add route	Click stops in order, then Save to build the route

Stops

Creating a stop

1. Select the Add stop tool.
2. Click the map where the stop belongs.
3. The stop is created as New stop 5; rename it with Edit.

The stop card

Clicking a stop opens a card with:

• Code — the stop code;
• Routes — how many routes serve it;
• Latitude and Longitude;
• an Active / Inactive status.

Fly to (shortcut Space) centres the map on the stop.

The stop list

At /transport/stops. The Transit stops table with Name, Coordinates and Status columns. Double-click opens the stop page.

The stop page

Holds an Attributes block and a Routes serving this stop block. With no routes: "No routes serve this stop yet." View on map returns to the map.

Routes

Creating a route

1. Select the Add route tool.
2. Click the stops one by one in travel order. The counter reads 7 stops selected.
3. Press Save. The system builds the route line along the roads ("Building route…").
4. Clear resets the selection.

Refining the route line

If the automatically built line does not follow the path you want, open Refine route: "Drag a point; click the line to add one". When you are done press Save route.

The route card

The route card shows:

• Stops — the stop count;
• Stop sequence — the travel order;
• Costing — the routing profile the line is built with;
• Assigned vehicles — the vehicles on this route.

Edit lets you change the route name and Color.

The route list

At /transport/routes. The Transit routes table. Double-click opens the route page with an Attributes block and the list of stops; with none: "This route has no stops yet."

Assigning a route to a vehicle

1. Open the route card or route page.
2. Press Assign to vehicle.
3. Fill in the form:
   • Vehicle — which vehicle serves the route;
   • Service days — on which days of the week;
   • Schedule (arrival time) — the planned arrival times at the stops.
4. Press Assign.

note

Assigning a route requires the "Live API" data source: "Assigning a route requires the Live API data source." Switch the source in the user menu — see Data sources.

Assigned routes appear on the vehicle page under the Routes tab, with a Show route line toggle.

Forecast and punctuality

For a vehicle on a route the system computes a Next stops (forecast) block — the expected arrival times at the upcoming stops.

The On-time figure is the share of arrivals that met the schedule; the tooltip spells out the basis: "On-time rate over 128 recorded arrivals".

When the forecast predicts a late arrival, the Running late event fires — you can subscribe to it in the vehicle's notifications block.

The punctuality report

Open it from Reports → Transit on-time or at /analytics/transit. It is described in full under Reports and analytics.

Typical workflows

Set up a new route. Add stop tool → place the stops → Add route tool → click the stops in order → Save → Refine route if needed → Assign to vehicle with a schedule.

Work out why a route runs late. The Transit on-time report → the By route table → find the route with a high late share → open its vehicle on the map and review its trips and events.

Check stop coverage. The stop page → the Routes serving this stop block.
