The Standard AM and PM Event Groups exist by default.

If you require specialised Event Groups outside of these, they must be created prior to creating your Routes. 

Step 5 - Create Transports
Transports - Create a Transport
Creating a Transport company allows you to assign your Routes to specific Transports, this is particularly important if you utilise multiple Bus companies.  

Note - Import Stops

However, it is often easier to create stops as you allocate them to the routes.

Create stops through the Route Builder screen then allocate directly to the relevant Route. Use the map to confirm stop locations are correct.
