SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MANAGING TRANSIT SERVICE INTERRUPTIONS
First Claim
1. A system for detour segments for patterns for bus routes to be performed by a transit vehicle as part of a schedule for a day, responsive to an interruption on the pattern, the system comprising:
- a scheduling server, configured to;
receive, from one or more interruption sources, an interruption for a pattern, the interruption comprising a part of the pattern that cannot be driven by the transit vehicle;
determine a detour segment starting point and a detour segment ending point;
check a detour segment database for an existing detour segment having the detour segment starting point and the detour segment ending point;
if the checking returns an existing detour segment then;
apply the detour segment to the pattern, according to at least one detour segment parameter, to create a detoured schedule.

Abstract
There are systems and methods for detour segments for patterns for bus routes to be performed by a transit vehicle as part of a schedule for a day, responsive to an interruption on the pattern, the system comprising a scheduling server, configured to receive an interruption for a pattern, determine a detour segment starting point and a detour segment ending point, check a detour segment database for an existing detour segment having the detour segment starting point and the detour segment ending point and if the checking returns an existing detour segment then apply the detour segment to the pattern, according to the detour segment parameters, to create a detoured schedule.
