Figure 0­13 - Example 6: Hail & Ride

To name the zones covered by Hail & Ride services, a NaPTAN stop point entry is required for each road on the Hail & Ride section. In the example in Figure 0­13, Hail & Ride sections are defined for 'Northdown Road', and 'Fort Road', with a time info point bus stop on Gibbon Road.

• Each Hail & Ride entry corresponds to a section of the Hail & Ride route, so there are two Hail & Ride entries with a StopClassification of HailAndRide (HAR).
• Each Hail & Ride stop point has HailAndRide / Start and End elements.
• Hail & Ride and regular bus stop entries can be mixed; there is also one regular bus stop entry.
• Gibbon Road is a time info point.

Note that if the 'Gibbon Road' had been a Hail & Ride road as well, it would be represented by two Hail & Ride sections, one each side of the marked stop in 'Gibbon Road.'
