Last-Mile Delivery Route Efficiency

This dataset provides granular, route-level metrics for last-mile delivery operations, including planned and actual timings, stop-level performance, delay analysis, and contextual factors such as region and weather. It enables logistics companies to benchmark route efficiency, identify bottlenecks, and optimize delivery processes for improved customer satisfaction and operational cost savings.
