QRoutes

QRoutes is a low-cost, cloud-based tool for planning transport for Special Education Needs & Disabilities, mainstream schools and social care. Its development has been sponsored by the  European Commission, under the frontierCities programme, and Kent County Council, who has trialled QRoutes with data from their existing schools transport provision.

QRoutes is based around an interactive GIS map screen which displays passengers, establishments (such as schools), optional stop locations and routes. The inbuilt automated routing engine generates optimised solutions but planners retain the power to easily adjust or create routes within QRoutes as needed.

Existing automated routing systems tend to be complicated, expensive, time-consuming to install and difficult to learn to use. QRoutes allows planners to import their existing data, visualise it and generate routes within minutes. Access is via a low cost monthly subscription.
