Vehicle Routing Coverage

Audience: Transportation admins and staff
Purpose: Define the streets or street segments a vehicle serves so students can be automatically assigned based on their pickup and drop-off locations.

EZRouting allows you to associate vehicles with specific street segments. Using the Vehicle Streets section within each vehicle record, you can define:

  • Street segment ranges (house number ranges)
  • Odd or even house numbers only
  • The schools served by that vehicle

Students who live on those street segments will automatically be assigned to the corresponding buses. The designated vehicle information will appear on the student record, which is especially helpful when routing students.

For example, Bus 02 serves the even-numbered addresses on Millersville Pike and goes to Fulton School. This means Bus 02 is the designated vehicle for students who attend Fulton School and live on the even side of Millersville Pike. For a student like Howard Collins, you will see Bus 02 listed as the designated vehicle under his address section.

What Vehicle Streets Control

Vehicle Streets determine:

  • Which student addresses are eligible for a specific vehicle
  • Automatic student-to-vehicle assignment
  • How vehicles are matched during routing and optimization

A student whose pickup or drop-off location falls on a designated street segment can be automatically assigned to that vehicle.

Steps

  1. Navigate to Vehicles.
  2. Select a vehicle from the list.
  3. Open the Vehicle Streets tab.
  4. Click Add Street or Add Segment.
  5. Search for and select the street or draw the street segment on the map.
  6. Save the assignment.

Tips

  • Use street segments instead of full streets in dense areas for better precision.
  • Review vehicle streets after boundary or zoning changes.
