The route planner for winter maintenance that does the paperwork too.
xRouten takes winter maintenance route planning digital
Plan your whole winter operation in xRouten. No more Excel sheets, handwritten lists or looking up addresses one by one in Google Maps.
Swap the big plotter maps and route folders for digital maps that are more flexible and save you time. Import your routes, and your winter planning is digital. Then install our mobile app on every phone or tablet and head straight out. New starters get up to speed in a fraction of the time.
Add the right notes to every address (e.g. “clear by hand”) and even draw site sketches right on the map, so drivers see them in the app instead of digging through a folder in the cab. Our winter maintenance software creates every confirmation automatically, even when the phone stays in your driver's pocket. Locations reach the office in real time, so you don't need GPS devices.
And if you ever need to check when your team was where (say, for an insurance claim), every route driven is saved and you can show it on the map in a few clicks.
Plan and optimise winter maintenance routes fast
Plan your machine and hand-clearing routes and let xRouten put them in the best order. A simple interface with everything a route planner needs, and nothing it doesn't. So you can react straight away when someone drops out and make changes on the fly.
