You're stuck in peak traffic. How can you navigate efficiently and avoid delays?
Caught in a jam? Peak traffic demands smart strategies to avoid delays. Here's how to navigate efficiently:
- Plan ahead using real-time traffic apps to anticipate and circumvent congestions.
- Consider alternative routes, even if they seem longer; sometimes a steady flow beats a standstill.
- Use the time wisely by listening to audiobooks or podcasts, turning frustration into personal enrichment.

If you are stuck in peak traffic - the failure is at the planning process level - a good supply planning system will anticipate and plan for 1) Weather 2) Season ( Tourist season/Festivals- Games, Music, Religious/National holidays/Long holiday weekends) 3) Congestion (Peak hours/Non peak) 4) Road Maintenance/diversion timetables 5) Security ( on road incl Medical/Rest & Maintenance/Safe haven facilities) 6) Route planning with time of arrival at choke points (if any). If a supply run has been executed without considering these points then there must be some exigency reason outside the control of the Supply Chain manager.

Preemptive Route Planning is key to reducing peak traffic impacts. Using tools like Google Maps or Waze helps transportation managers predict congestion and take proactive measures. These apps offer real time updates and alternative routes to avoid delays, improving traffic flow. However, Driver Training is crucial. Drivers must be skilled in road safety, fuel efficient driving, and using navigation apps to make dynamic route adjustments. This reduces stress, enables better decisions, and enhances transportation efficiency. Well trained drivers also lower fuel consumption, reduce emissions, and perform better under pressure.

There is a difference if you face a onetime traffic mess because of a 100 unforeseen issues. It is another thing if you are facing a repetitive log jam, on the same stretch of road. Sometimes you have no choice but to live with it. Other times it can be a simple as getting out of bed earlier, to give yourself a huge advantage in avoiding an ongoing traffic jam.

To navigate peak traffic efficiently, use real-time navigation apps and plan your route ahead. Avoid peak hours when possible, explore alternative routes, and stay updated with traffic reports. Consider carpooling and allow extra travel time. Adjust your schedule if needed to minimize delays

Acredito que um bom planejamento, Or?amento de Custos, Tempos e Movimentos e compromissos de SLA's afinados, mitigam riscos de custos imprevistos e atenuam possíveis ineficiências ao longo do exercício. Digo isso, pois n?o existe opera??o perfeita, quando se fala de Transporte, por mais "redondas" e tecnológicas que sejam as opera??es, vale aplicar nos modelos preditivos para Or?amento, margens de riscos, pois no fim das contas, o que é necessário fazer é atenuar por meio de a??es as curvas de riscos que pode vir acontecer, sejam estas previstas por histórico ou por premissas.
