Junction Point Routing

Junction Point Routing is a logistics routing technique that increases transit efficiency by using critical transportation hubs, or “junctions.” Instead of sending goods via a single linear course, this approach reroutes freight through optimal linking locations, such as regional hubs or intermodal terminals, to save time and money. It works especially well in global and multi-modal supply chains, where coordination across multiple transportation legs is essential.

Junction Point Routing in CargoWise allows logistics companies to automate decisions about when and where to transition cargo across carriers, modes, or regions. The system examines numerous routing scenarios and selects the optimal way based on delivery deadlines, service levels, and cost-effectiveness. Companies can shorten lead times, eliminate empty miles, and increase asset usage by routing through optimum junction locations. This leads to wiser supply chain flows, particularly for consolidated or complex shipments.
