The Transportation tool allows districts to show a student's transportation information for the day, record the bus routes students are assigned to and from school, create transportation requests, and record information for vehicles students drive to and from school. Additional Route Types can be added via the Core Attribute/Dictionary, and additional custom fields can be added to Routes, Requests, and Parking via the Custom Attribute/Dictionary.
