There are multiple companies that provide such API's that can make you the route. After extensive research we have 2-3 that make a relatively good route (Still not as good as a person that knows the streets.)

But the issue is the cost. I do not see a school paying $100-$200 for each route that hey create. The pricing is best on amount of stops. Also they have a max of 200-300 stops which will not work for large schools.

Anyone interested, please respond.

PS Also our original route creation that is built on Mappoint still works. Just they stopped updating addresses so it will not work in Lakewood because of the new areas not mapped. In Monsey it will work 85%.

Do you have a guide on how to use mappoint to create a route?

Thank you

Yes. Just press F1 in the bus routes screen and you can follow the help file.
