Case Study: La Linea SpA reduces deadhead mileage and PVR with Optibus

How La Linea SpA saved 358 km/day and reduced PVR by 14.75%

La Linea SpA, a public transportation operator in Venice and other Northern Italian cities, needed help modernizing planning and scheduling while transitioning to a growing electric bus fleet. With tight turnaround times for service changes and manual processes that made optimization difficult, the company turned to Optibus’ Planning, Scheduling, Rostering, and Operations products to support more efficient operations.

Using Optibus, La Linea optimized vehicle assignments, routes, and schedules to improve EV management and service planning. The results included a 358-kilometer daily reduction in deadhead mileage, 130,670 annual kilometers cut, a 14.75% reduction in peak vehicle requirement, and a 2.7% boost in vehicle efficiency metrics.
