Customer journey planner optimised for a better customer user experience

The journey planner has been optimised to be viewing on desktop and more mobile devices. You can now also pan around the map using 1 finger instead of 2. In addition, we have made performance increased to the page load time.

The new look and feel makes it easier for users to see information that is most important to them. Buttons are easy to identify and animal icons are much larger.

We also now display non-timing point stop departure times in italics so that customers know that this stop departure is an estimated stop departure time.

School list timetables

School list timetables allow you view all route services that drop-off or pick-up from a school. This is useful to send to schools.

The school list timetable is automatically populated when schools are added in the Stop Management module.

The school list is designed to be embedded onto your website so customers can easily view school specific timetables.

In-seat transfers

Set in-seat transfers for scenarios where customers can stay on the same bus to make a transfer to another service.

New Features

New navigation

We've made the navigation a bit cleaner. New menu options, and cleaner UI designs.

Stop Manager: Capture school bell times

You can now capture school bell times for your school stops. Capture the Start and End bell times at any school stop type. In addition, you can capture Bus arriving within and Bus departing within time durations

The Bus arriving within and Bus departing within time durations will return services in the customer journey planner that fall within these time durations.

For example, if a school has a 9:00am school bell start time with a 30min Bus arriving within time duration, then the customer journey planner will return bus services where the arrival time at the school is between 8:30am to 9:00am.

Similarly, if a school has a 3:00pm school bell end time with a 30min Bus departing within time duration, the the customer journey planner will return bus services where the departure time at the school is between 3:00pm and 3:30pm

Route Mapper: Route list trip information

The route list now displays the total number or trips for the given route variant.

Clicking on the trip count will display trip information such as operating schedule and trip start times for each trip of the route variant.

Linked stops on the map

Selecting a stop or school in the Stop Manager displays other stops that have been linked
