Plan the service.
See vehicles, cost
and demand.

With Replan Transit you plan network, stops, routes and schedules in the browser, from one route change to a bus network redesign. Every variant comes with vehicles, cost and access, and Replan SIM simulates its ridership. Used by planners at HAVAG, LVB, MDV, THÜSAC, NASA GmbH and MUKMAV.

Routes, schedules and cost live in three different tools.

The route

Drawn in GIS or on paper

Path and stops, but no schedule, no vehicles, no walkshed figures.

The schedule

Excel or the scheduling system

Trips and headways, but no map and no view of who is reached.

The cost

A third spreadsheet

Vehicles and hours recalculated by hand for every variant. Versions drift apart.

Replan Transit: one workspace. Draw the route, set the service, and vehicles, cost and accessibility follow for every variant.

What service planning software has to do →

Every variant comes with its numbers.

The same four figures for today and for every variant, side by side. Example values from the variant in the tour above.

Service

4 peak vehicles

Trips, run time, revenue hours and miles, headway and span of service, recalculated with every edit.

Cost

$2.21M per year

Vehicle blocks with deadhead and layover, runs and pay hours, cost per route, day and year from your unit rates, exported to Excel.

Access

96,200 residents within 30 min

Walksheds along the street network, job access in 15, 30 and 45 minutes, frequency and overlap across the network.

Ridership with Replan SIM

21,900 riders per weekday

Every person in the digital twin decides again: ons and offs by stop, load by segment, transfers and mode shift, against today.

Scenario comparison: today against variant B with ridership, wait, cost

From route idea to decision in one working session.

01

Open the digital twin of your region

Network, schedules, stops, demand and population are prepared. You start from a working baseline.

02

Draw or modify a route

Drag the route onto the street, rail or light rail network. Add, move or remove stops. Copy or reverse routes.

03

Change the service

Change headway, span of service, vehicle type, single trips or headway periods.

04

Run the scenario

Vehicles, cost and access are recalculated for the whole variant. Ridership follows in Replan SIM.

05

Compare and export

Compare variants with the baseline. Export maps, tables, GIS layers and reports, or share a link.

What Replan Transit does.

Three points per area. The full catalog with more than 100 features is available on request.

Network, stops, routes

  • Network, stops, routes and patterns on a web map with switchable base and technical layers
  • Create, edit, move and retire stops with technical attributes and quality checks
  • Routes with direction, path and several patterns; fast routing against the existing network while drawing

Schedule and service

  • Import, edit and export schedules: service days, calendars, trips and trip sequences
  • Service periods as single trips or headway periods; group trips into a headway period with one click
  • Matrix and stringline views; shift trips by dragging, edit headways in the diagram

KPIs, cost and accessibility

  • Service kilometers and hours, run time, route length, number of trips and peak vehicles per variant
  • Parametric cost model: vehicle types, cost models (purchase, service life, maintenance, tires, cleaning, energy), agency cost model, energy price scenarios
  • Three cost drivers (hours, kilometers, fleet depreciation), interlining and reserve factors; Excel dashboard per route, service and vehicle type

Visualization

  • Before/after maps with a light or dark base, line styles and legends as lines
  • Annotations: polygons, labels, arrows and symbols, for example a work zone with detour
  • Per-stop symbols, label position, color and background

Data and interfaces

  • GTFS import and a technically usable GTFS export
  • Agreed GIS data as map or technical layers; clone presets with all routes, one operator or single routes
  • Migration from your current planning system: documented mapping, sum checks, samples, technical comparison cases

Collaboration and governance

  • Several planners work at once in a shared tenant; each organization sees only its own projects
  • Comments on a stop, a route or any map point, with threads and resolve
  • Editing lock while a route is being changed; roles for administration, editing and read/release

From the schedule to vehicles, operators and cost.

Select a route and a day. Replan Transit builds the vehicle blocks from the trips, counts vehicles, deadhead and layover, derives runs and pay hours and calculates the annual cost per route, service type and vehicle type. The result opens in Excel.

1

Schedule

Trips, matrix, stringline and map with a time slider. Service periods as single trips or headways, per service type and day.

2

Vehicle blocks

Trips are chained into blocks with turnaround and deadhead rules; the Gantt shows every vehicle's day. KPIs: vehicles, trips in service, deadhead, layover, service span. Interlining lets one vehicle serve several routes.

3

Runs and operators

Runs per block with layover, deadhead and relief inputs; pay hours with weekend and holiday premiums; operator requirement from productive hours and an extraboard factor; spare vehicles on top of the peak fleet.

4

Cost and Excel

Three cost drivers: hours, kilometers and fleet depreciation. Vehicle cost models (purchase price, service life, maintenance, energy), an agency cost model (operator and mechanic cost, reserves, garage, overhead) and energy price scenarios. Output: an Excel workbook with dashboard, routes, services and vehicle types.

In daily use by transit planners.

Transit agencies, regional authorities and operators use Replan Transit for network redesigns, construction detours, schedule changes and cost estimates. Every subscription includes four training sessions.
