1
a fixed way between two places, along which a bus, plane, ship, etc. regularly travels
A route refers to a specific path or track followed by a bus, train, or other forms of public transportation to take passengers from one place to another. It includes the starting point, stops along the way, and the final destination. Routes are planned to connect different areas, ensuring passengers can travel efficiently between key locations. Each route is usually identified by a number or name, and vehicles on that route follow the same path regularly, often at set times. Public transport routes help organize travel and make it easier for people to get to where they need to go.
