Movement framework

Planning controlled road movements.

A structured approach to route selection, communications, check-ins, alternatives and escalation before a vehicle departs.

General guidance only. Route suitability and risk conditions can change quickly. Obtain a current operational review for each movement.

1. Define the movement objective

Record the origin, destination, required arrival time, passenger profile, vehicle needs and whether stops or multiple pickups are expected.

2. Review route options

Assess the primary route and realistic alternatives, including road conditions, timing, fuel availability, communications coverage and known restrictions.

3. Set check-in points

Agree when the movement will report departure, progress, delays, route changes and safe arrival. Define who monitors those updates.

4. Establish escalation triggers

Decide what should happen after a missed check-in, breakdown, medical issue, severe delay, road closure or unexpected security concern.

5. Close the movement formally

Confirm safe arrival, record significant delays or incidents and capture lessons that should inform future movements.
