A route is one bus run with a vehicle, a driver, a list of stops and a list of students. Anyone who can open Transport sees the route list. Only people who can manage transport see the buttons to add, edit and delete, and the Stops & students section.

What you see on this page

  • Four totals: Total routes, Active routes, Students assigned and Stops mapped.
  • A status bar showing how the routes split between Active and Inactive.
  • The table: Route (name and code), Vehicle, Driver (with phone number), Stops, Students and Status.
  • A pager when there are more than 10 routes.
  • Edit and delete icons on each row, for people who can manage transport.
  • Stops & students: a section below the table with a tab for each route on the page. Pick a tab to manage that route.
