Planning notes & the operator landscape
How we think about sizing a commuter program, grouping routes, and choosing vehicles — plus honest, real-company rankings of who runs employee and contract shuttle service in the New York metro. Independent of advertising; see the editorial standard.
The journal runs two kinds of piece. Operator landscapes read the market and name the real companies we would trust with an employee shuttle program — scored on how they handle recurring, contracted routes, never on who pays. Field notes are the working mechanics: how to size a fleet to a headcount, why route grouping beats point-to-point, and how to make the morning deadline without a half-empty bus. Everything is written from the program desk, and every claim is checked at the time of writing.
