Pathwise Announces Revolutionary Real-Time Intelligence Capabilities for Student Transportation

New capabilities significantly increase communication speed, accuracy, and transparency, as well as student safety.

June 21, 2024 (Corpus Christi, Texas.) – Pathwise, a leader in operational and compliance software for the education sector, today announced the ability to provide real-time intelligence data related to student transportation through its transportation management platform, EZTransportation. These groundbreaking capabilities are being demonstrated this week at the TAPT Conference & Trade Show in Corpus Christi, Texas.

These real-time capabilities include easily accessible information on student bus check-ins and check-offs as well as pick-up and drop-off locations, the ability to accurately predict bus arrival times in the event of last-minute changes to planned routes so that parents and schools can be proactively notified, and the ability to provide accurate turn-by-turn directions to bus drivers on-the-fly when route adjustments have to be made due to an unexpected driver call-out or mechanical issue.

Until now, school districts were hampered by legacy transportation solutions that relied on outdated syncing methods, severely impacting districts’ ability to communicate quickly, accurately, and transparently with parents and safeguard student safety.

“We’re thrilled to be the first to offer true real-time intelligence capabilities to school districts,“ stated Nate Brogan, Chief Executive Officer at Pathwise. “Student safety and maintaining parent trust are paramount in today’s world. EZTransportation makes this immediate insight available whenever it is needed, enabling transportation professionals to more easily and effectively deliver on their mission.”
