Route Safety
Pick Up Drop Off (PUDO) locations
Any location where a passenger is picked up or dropped off is called a PUDO. Where possible, these are bus stop locations.
Details of these PUDO points, along a route, are shared with the operator and you should ensure that you know the locations approved to use prior to fulfilling an LCC contract.
You should also ensure that a risk assessment is completed by your transport operator for the route which you are required to travel when operating your contract, especially for PSV vehicles.
All PUDO’s have been risk assessed prior to their utilisation.
