“There is nothing else like Remix in the transit marketplace. It places many planning tools into one resourceful package, providing a useful and intuitive solution for both expert planners and newbies.”
“When it came time to finalize the plan, getting buy-in was easier because they actually understood it.”
"Remix brings clarity for everyone. It’s valuable to have everyone looking at the same platform, the same visuals, and the same facts-- all of which make the conversation more productive for municipalities."
“When you try to communicate to audiences goals, objectives, and strategies, it’s really difficult to show them, ‘what is improved access? What does that look like? We can use Remix to paint that picture visually. We can communicate to our elected officials and our planners why these are important objectives and strategies.”
“Remix took what was always a laborious process and turned it into an extremely simple, dynamic method of doing both on-the-fly and detailed service planning.”
"Before Remix, it was a non-starter to bring innovative ideas. With this technology, we now have opened doors to a dialogue that otherwise would not have happened."
“We never had drivers do multiple routes with the same bus before. This would have been difficult to do by hand since we never had such complex routes, on top of adding peak service hours. And now we’re saving a whole lot of money because of it.”
"We used Remix to plan and schedule the system expansion. Without Remix, we probably would have had to hire a team of 4 to 5 people totally dedicated to scheduling the expansion by hand."
“We’re a small rural transit agency, but we want to be on the front line. To be able to be nimble and proactive and make changes is invaluable for us.”
"I can change transit variables with transparency in Remix, and I see the trust growing in the public’s eyes."
“This was perhaps my favorite public-meeting experience ever, since we came up with a solution that everyone liked, and some of our riders left the meeting knowing that they had a real constructive impact on shaping their transit system.”
“How Remix really saves me time is instead of drawing something on, you know, taking a screenshot of Google and doing a hand-drawn line image, or doing something like that and submitting it to our graphics team and waiting on them to make a map, then realizing there’s a mistake and sending it back, I can do all this now and come up with unlimited scenarios within an hour.”
"What's great is that more than just planners use Remix at our agency. Anyone here can use Remix to work on concepts, which allows us to get as creative as we want."
“Everything from long-range, 20-year long-range planning all the way down to operator scheduling, runcutting, bidding, bid administration, and every step in between. We do long-range planning, we do short-range planning, we do annual budget developments, we do both short-range and long-range service planning and changes, route expansions and improvements, project implementation. We also have a large role in technology implementation and projects, so right now we’re in the middle of the implementation of our automated vehicle location system. We do our routine service and schedule changes, which includes assembling and administering the bidding process. This part of the year, we’re starting on our annual budgeting process for trading out budgets for the next year, our operating budget and our capital budget, which we do every year for a 10-year window. Also, we do a lot of grant work.”
“The improvements in the bus routes have increased up to 3,000 daily riders for Tren Urbano in the first months after the change was implemented.”
