1

Think about the key places you want to include in your bus route. For example, if you are planning a tourist route around your city, be sure to include a drive past the most attractive and famous places in it. Do not be afraid to make it too long: the more interesting the route is, the more profitable it will be for you.

2

Make sure you can stop near all important places. In order for the passengers to remember the road and feel that they bought tickets for a reason, you should try to make all the important points on the route accessible. Indicate your key places in the road plan, consider any deviation from the route, do not forget about additional stops closer to the city center or somewhere near major hotels and business places.

3

Avoid locations that are prone to traffic jams. If you created a route that allows you to get to the right place as soon as possible, but did not take into account the nature of movement on it, then your work may be in vain. Passengers need only one trip to evaluate the quality of service and conclude whether to use your services in the future. And if during a trip they get stuck in traffic, this will leave a negative impression in their memory forever. In some situations, for example, when it is impossible to avoid a trip along a busy street, be sure to warn passengers about this in advance.

4

Register your route in the transport department of your city. You must have all the necessary documents for using public transport, a prepared route plan and a description of its functions.

5

Get routing software. Car navigators can help you create a bus route on your computer and in the process will show important information such as total mileage, route time and possible locations of traffic jams.
