Feasible routes
Height, weight and vehicle class are part of the calculation, so the road proposed is one the vehicle may legally use.
PlatformConnected
Consumer sat-nav routes a car.
Your driver is in a 40-tonne truck.
A 40-tonne vehicle cannot take every tunnel, every ferry, every street, or the motorway at every hour. Truck navigation puts HERE WeGo Pro in the driver's hands with the vehicle's own profile, so the route on the phone matches the route that was planned.
01/Why it matters
The plan is only as good
as the road the driver takes.
Plan a round for a truck and hand the driver Waze or Google Maps and you have two different routes: the one you optimised and the one the driver is being told to drive. The gap shows up as late arrivals, illegal turns and kilometres nobody planned.
One route, not two
The driver follows the same route the optimiser produced, which is what makes the planned ETA mean something.
Built for professional drivers
A navigation app made for commercial vehicles rather than one that assumes a car.
02/Features
What it does.
HERE WeGo Pro
Urbantz partnered with HERE to offer their professional navigation app to customers whose fleet is trucks.
Vehicle profile passed through
Vehicle type, height, gross weight and weight travel from Urbantz to the navigation app rather than being re-entered per driver.
Restrictions respected
Tunnels, ferries, restricted streets and time-of-day motorway limits are part of the route calculation.
Licences managed from the platform
Licences are issued and withdrawn per driver from the admin section, and a driver who leaves loses theirs with their account.
Routing profiles
The same vehicle parameters feed Urbantz's own route calculation, so planning and navigation agree.

Licensed per driver. Drivers on vans and bikes keep the app's built-in navigation and the Waze and Google Maps hand-off; this is for fleets where that is not good enough.
