Fill school bus shifts before routes break.
RouteRelay connects districts and transportation contractors with vetted, CDL-certified substitute drivers—without treating student transportation like anonymous gig work.
Built for transportation directors, contractors, and qualified drivers.
Route status
Qualified coverage, in motion.
The RouteRelay standard
Built on proof, not promises of instant supply.
Qualifications first
Driver credentials and readiness are visible before an assignment moves forward.
No invented availability
Transportation teams see real responses to real shifts—not an inflated driver count.
Local control stays local
Districts and contractors keep final screening, approval, and dispatch authority.
Clear placement economics
Fees are confirmed up front and tied to actual shift coverage.
One operational loop
From uncovered route to confirmed driver.
RouteRelay organizes the messy middle between a shortage alert and a safe, staffed assignment.
Dispatch sees one route, one status, and one accountable handoff.
Post the gap, identify qualified nearby drivers, confirm the assignment, and retain a clear record for the transportation team.
Match against real qualifications
Prioritize CDL status, required endorsements, background checks, training, and proximity before a driver reaches dispatch.
Confirm and coordinate
Keep assignment details, driver status, and handoff notes in one operational view for transportation teams.
For experienced drivers
Turn open days into meaningful local shifts.
Semi-retired and part-time CDL holders can share qualifications, indicate availability, pursue local substitute work, and refer other qualified drivers as the network grows.
