Case Study: Bakersfield City School District streamlines bus routing and scenario planning with Transfinder Routefinder PLUS

Bakersfield City School District cuts 20 routes in a week and a half with Transfinder

Bakersfield City School District, a kindergarten through eighth grade district with 30,000 students in California, selected Transfinder for its school bus routing software. The district sought a more efficient, intuitive, and data-driven solution to manage complex routing needs, especially in the face of challenges like driver shortages and changing school start times.

By implementing Transfinder's Routefinder PLUS software, the district gained powerful tools like Trip Absorption and "what if" scenario planning. Transfinder's solution enabled the district to eliminate 20 routes, optimize stops, and efficiently plan for major operational changes, providing crucial data that improved decision-making across the district and significantly streamlined transportation management.
