Hello,

I have two feature classes - Bus Route and Bus Stops. Bus Route has Route Name information and Bus Stops have Stop Number and Route Name information.  I would like to use these two feature classes to find out the below

  1. Distance between two stops irrespective of Route Name
  2. Shortest route between two stops based on the available Bus Routes

Please advise.

Regards

Anand

Actually, since you already know the routes between the stops, this sounds like a problem you can solve with linear referencing.  You can use the linear referencing tools, or if you're comfortable with python, you can grab the geometry objects of your stops and routes and use the measureOnLine method.
