Public & fixed-route transport

Demand-led planning and operational control for fixed-route transport.

For cities, Unified Metropolitan Transport Authorities (UMTAs), BRT systems, bus operators, rail-feeder operators and commuter transport environments.

Built for UMTAs

Ready to deploy for Unified Metropolitan Transport Authorities.

As UMTAs take charge of urban connectivity, RouteSync helps authorities plan, operate and monitor multi-modal transport in one unified platform — coordinating every mode instead of managing them in silos.

Metro ⇄ Feeder

Sync feeder services to metro timings and station demand for seamless first/last-mile connectivity.

Metro ⇄ City Bus

Align metro and city bus schedules so transfers connect and corridors complement, not compete.

City Bus ⇄ Intercity Bus

Coordinate intracity and intercity services at interchanges for end-to-end journeys.

Real-time demand & coverage analysis Route overlap detection Cross-mode time scheduling Unified monitoring across modes
First & last mile connectivity

The make-or-break of metro ridership.

A metro is only as strong as the journey to and from the station. RouteSync rationalises feeder services — shared autos, e-rickshaws, micro-mobility and city buses — so every station is genuinely reachable, and every feeder earns its place.

Shared & micro-mobility integration

Organise shared autos, e-rickshaws and micro-mobility into structured feeder loops around every station catchment.

  • Catchment & public-place mapping
  • AI feeder-loop creation
  • Pickup/drop & stop-spacing planning

Institutional first/last mile

Predictable, demand-responsive feeders for schools, colleges, corporates, hospitals, industrial areas and campuses.

  • Institutional OD analysis
  • Residential clustering
  • Timetables aligned to metro

Metro–city bus feeder sync

Align city buses as effective metro feeders — cutting duplication and making interchanges seamless.

  • Overlap & duplication detection
  • Timetable synchronisation
  • Network-wide optimisation

Covered, uncovered & balanced route creation.

RouteSync classifies every catchment, then builds the right feeder route for it — using population-density heatmaps, institutional coverage and gap analysis.

Covered area routes

Improve efficiency and service quality where shared, bus or feeder services already exist.

Uncovered area routes

New feeders for areas with real commuter demand but inadequate or no connectivity to stations.

Balanced routes

Built by balancing demand, fleet availability, travel time, route length and stop spacing.

The challenge

Where fixed-route transport loses control — and how RouteSync responds.

The pain today

  • Unclear demand and weak feeder design
  • Poor route performance and missed trips
  • Fleet constraints and lost kilometres
  • Weak reporting and SLA accountability
  • Ticketing disconnected from operations

The RouteSync response

  • Demand heatmaps, OD flows and coverage analysis
  • Route design, transit infrastructure and feeders
  • Schedule, fleet and crew planning
  • Command centre, monitoring and incidents
  • Revenue, reports and performance dashboards
Planning deliverable

Detailed Project Report (DPR) — planned with data, built to deliver.

For cities, UMTAs and authorities, RouteSync produces a complete, data-driven Detailed Project Report — covering every phase from demand assessment to a deployable, fundable service plan. And because the DPR is built on the same platform that runs daily operations, the plan flows straight into delivery rather than gathering dust on a shelf.

01

Inception & data collection

Primary and secondary surveys — household, origin–destination, boarding–alighting, traffic counts and speed–delay — with existing-system review and stakeholder consultation to set the evidence base.

02

Travel demand assessment

OD matrices, ridership estimation and demand forecasting by corridor, time band and mode — the demand intelligence behind every design decision.

03

Existing situation & gap analysis

Coverage, overlap and underserved-area mapping against current routes, fleet and infrastructure — showing exactly where the network fails demand today.

04

Network & route planning

Route rationalisation, network design, feeder and first/last-mile structure, and depot/terminal location — covered, uncovered and balanced routes built around real demand.

05

Service planning

Timetables, frequencies and headways, fleet sizing and crew requirements — a service plan matched to demand by time of day and corridor.

06

Infrastructure planning

Depots, terminals, stops and shelters, plus ITS / AFCS infrastructure — everything needed to operate the designed network.

07

Fare & financial planning

Fare structure, fare-box revenue, operating cost and viability — building the financial case and fare-box ratio for the plan.

08

Institutional & operating model

Operating structure (gross-cost / net-cost), governance, roles and procurement strategy — how the service is contracted, owned and run.

09

Implementation plan & phasing

Costed capex / opex, rollout phasing and timelines — a clear, fundable path from approved report to a running service.

Beyond the report

Implementation & go-live support.

A DPR is only as good as what happens next. RouteSync supports the whole journey from approved report to a controlled, monitored, day-to-day operation.

Performance hand-holdingPlanned-vs-actual review and ongoing tuning
A DPR that stays alive. Because planning and operations share one data model, the demand, network and service plan in your DPR become the live baseline for operations — so you measure planned-vs-actual from day one instead of filing the report away.
Use cases

Designed for every fixed-route environment.

High frequency

BRT corridors

Plan, monitor and control corridor operations with route, station, fleet, headway and incident visibility.

Scheduled

Municipal bus

Use demand intelligence and route performance data to redesign and control scheduled bus services.

First/last mile

Rail & metro feeders

Design feeder routes and first/last-mile networks aligned to rail and metro stations and demand.

Daily ops

Commuter bus

Improve service planning, fleet allocation, crew planning, revenue tracking and daily performance.

Formalisation

Minibus feeder networks

Support formalisation and network structuring through demand, route, stop and performance data.

Integration

Multimodal & first/last mile

Coordinate bus, BRT, paratransit and rail into one connected, transfer-aware network.
