About Relief Events

Relief events are the times and locations in a block where an operator takes over from another driver.

Updating relief events should be done after any blocking changes have been made to the schedule data. This refreshes the relief times of the trips after your data has been prepared for runcutting.

The relief points in a block from which you can choose when runcutting are identified in the Route Definition process. They are identified by the letter R (Relief) in the Label column of the Nodes tab in the Route Definition screen.

Note: Make sure to save your cuts since updating reliefs also removes any previously cut runs from the Cut Pieces grid. When you reload your run cuts after updating reliefs, any runs that were not affected by any blocking changes remain cut while the blocks that were changed are uncut.
