Earthworks Planning & Haul Route Optimization Software

Move earth smarter. NextBillion.ai's haul route optimization software helps earthworks and construction operations plan efficient truck routes, minimize dead miles, and reduce cycle times — with truck-dimension-aware routing, real-time haul monitoring, and custom road attribute controls built for the complexity of active construction sites and heavy equipment corridors.

Our Earthworks Planning & Haul Route Optimization Services

A complete software stack for planning, optimizing, dispatching, and monitoring haul routes across active earthworks and construction sites.

Route Optimization Software

Automatically generate optimized haul routes with support for 50+ hard and soft constraints including truck dimensions, load capacity, cycle time windows, and site access restrictions — dispatch-ready in seconds.

Distance Matrix API

Calculate real-time and historical travel times, distances, and ETAs between multiple borrow pits, dump zones, and staging areas simultaneously — supporting matrix sizes up to 5,000×5,000 for large earthworks networks.

Truck-Compliant Navigation

Generate vehicle-dimension-aware navigation routes for heavy haul trucks that respect bridge weight limits, road clearances, and site-specific access restrictions — preventing costly on-road violations and detours.

Road Attributes Editor

Inject custom road rules — haul road closures, weight restrictions, construction zone speed limits, and approved haul corridors — directly into every route and ETA calculation without engineering support.

Live Haul Tracking

Monitor every haul truck in real time with sub-meter location precision, configurable cycle alerts, route adherence monitoring, and idle-time detection to keep earthworks productivity metrics on target.

Route Planner App

A no-code, web-based planning interface that lets site managers visually build, review, adjust, and dispatch haul routes — importing stop lists, setting constraints, and pushing routes to drivers without any coding.

The NextBillion.ai Difference

Why Choose NextBillion.ai for Haul Route Optimization?

Built by logistics engineers who've solved large-scale routing problems at global platforms, NextBillion.ai delivers the routing intelligence earthworks operations actually need.

50+ Haul Constraints

Model real earthworks complexity with over 50 hard and soft constraints — truck dimensions, load limits, cycle windows, and site access rules — in every optimized route.

Truck-Aware Routing

Vehicle-dimension and weight-aware routing ensures haul trucks never get directed over restricted bridges, low-clearance underpasses, or weight-prohibited haul roads.

Predictable Pricing

Per-vehicle pricing instead of per-API-call billing means re-optimization cycles and demand spikes don't translate into unexpected budget overruns mid-project.

24/7 Expert Support

Hands-on support from NextBillion.ai's solutions engineering team ensures fast integration, live troubleshooting, and ongoing optimization tuning throughout your project lifecycle.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can NextBillion.ai's software handle the specific routing constraints of heavy haul trucks at earthworks sites?

Yes. The platform supports truck-dimension-aware routing — including vehicle height, weight, axle load, and length — to ensure haul trucks are routed only on roads that accommodate them. Bridge weight limits, low-clearance restrictions, and site-specific access rules can all be encoded through the Road Attributes Editor and applied to every route calculation automatically.

How does the software account for temporary haul road closures or changing site conditions?

What is the maximum number of haul points the Distance Matrix API can process in a single request?

How quickly can we integrate NextBillion.ai's haul route optimization into our existing site management systems?

Does the platform support real-time tracking of haul trucks during active shifts?

How does the pricing model work — is it charged per API call?

Can site managers without technical backgrounds use the route planning tools?

Is on-premise deployment available for projects with strict data security or connectivity requirements?
