You can now reverse routes on so that the first stop becomes the last, and the last stop becomes first. Routific will ensure the optimal route in between.
Our users like reversing routes to:
Reduce bottlenecks in high-traffic zones: Starting at the furthest stop and moving inward often means drivers avoid peak traffic at critical times.
Save time at the end of a driver shift: Starting far away lets drivers finish their routes closer to the depot, reducing probability of overtime due to traffic and long return trips.
How to reverse routes
Click on the route you want to reverse.
Select the icon with three dots.
Select Reverse route
A few things to note:
You can undo reversing the route (using the undo/redo buttons) but once the route is published, this feature is no longer available to you.
If reversing routes violates constraints (for example, if time windows are affected by the reversal), we'll let you know in the dispatcher view.
