Common use of Route Adjustments Clause in Contracts

Route Adjustments. Bus drivers must run the route as described on the MDT or T.R.I.P. generated route sheet. Route adjustment changes are to be implemented as indicated by the Department of Business and Transportation Services. The Contractor has the discretion to make an adjustment without pre-approval of the Department of Business and Transportation Services for reasons of safety and restricted access; however, Contractor must notify the Department of Business and Transportation Services of the changes within 24 hours. The Contractor may submit a request to adjust the stop or-times on a route for any other purpose but must receive authorization from the Department of Business and Transportation Service before implementing the changes. MPS remains responsible for designating stop locations. Route Adjustment Requests may be submitted electronically or via appropriate form. It is the responsibility of the Contractor to check both methods. Contractors must schedule a daily pickup from the Department of Business and Transportation Services at MPS Administration Building.
