Case Study: Springville-Griffith Institute Central School District achieves routing and budgetary efficiencies with Tyler Technologies' Traversa

District Realizes Multiple Routing and Budgetary Efficiencies by Switching to Traversa

Springville Griffith Institute Central School District in Springville, NY, serving about 1,950 students, faced rising costs and inefficiencies from an over‑featured routing system that they weren’t fully using. Transportation leaders also worried the existing software wasn’t integrating with a new student information system and made stop scheduling and route changes cumbersome for staff and substitute drivers.

The district implemented Tyler’s Traversa, which provided simpler stop scheduling, clear routing instructions, daily automated student updates from the SIS, and future-ready features like GPS turn‑by‑turn and a parent app. As a result they eliminated two full routes, shortened several others, purchased one fewer bus while keeping a five‑year rotation, improved multi‑stop student tracking and used the software to quickly create accurate food delivery routes during the COVID‑19 crisis.
