The Relief Timing preference allows you to define when drivers relieve one another while performing a changeover, in relation to the departure time of the current vehicle or arrival time of the next vehicle.
Note: The Relief Timing preference replaces two older preferences: Continuous Attendance (in the Vehicles category) and Duty Layover Relief (in the Drivers category). Learn how to Switch to Relief Timing preference.
Relief Timing fields
Each instance in the Relief Timing preference includes multiple fields:
Name: The name of the instance
Stops: Which stops are affected by this instance. In this example, it's the Depots stop group.
Routes: Which routes are affected by this instance. In this example, trips from all routes are affected.
Times applied: The times when this instance takes effect. In this example, the instance is effective "All day."
Relief time: Decide when the changeover will occur
Arrival: When the vehicle arrives at the stop. The route and time applied to refer to the arrival.
Departure: When the vehicle departs from the stop. The route and time applied to refer to the departure.
Before departure: A set number of minutes before the vehicle departs from the stop. The route and time applied to refer to the departure.
Arrival & Departure: The first driver's duty ends with arrival at the stop and the second driver's duty begins at departure from the stop. The route and time applied to refer to both the arrival and the departure.
More on Relief Timing
The order of the instances in this preference is important. If the same stops, routes, and times appear in more than one instance, the first instance where they appear will take precedence.
The default state of the relief time (when nothing is defined for a specific stop/route/time) is Arrival & Departure.
