About Trip Building
Trip building refers to the process of building schedules that show the times that vehicles are expected to arrive or depart from identified locations along a route. It is performed after determining the routes, node and stop patterns.
Trips Tab
The Trips tab shows the trips of the line you selected in Set Mode. The trips are shown in grids with the patterns, node abbreviations, and vehicle types that are assigned to them.
Building Trips on Run Time Interval or Trip Count
The patterns and run times you have created provide you with the data to build your trips.
About Smoothing Headways
The Smooth Headway option in the Build tab of the Trips Edit dialog box allows you to adjust run times of trips.

About Smoothing Headways

The Smooth Headway option in the Build tab of the Trips Edit dialog box allows you to adjust run times of trips.

You can use this option when you have the following instances:

A large difference in running times for the same node to node pair, which is before or after the build node, during successive time periods.
Tight headways, which means that the trips are only a few minutes apart.

Select this option when building trips based on run time intervals or trip count.
