Potential Problems Common to Carrier
Routes
D: The red carrier route stops and
then restarts in a cul de sac. There is
a chance that the carrier will deliver
everything between the two address
ranges (duplicated deliveries). These
errors can be minimized by defragmenting
carrier routes or by giving the same
carrier both routes to deliver at the
same time. |

E: There is also a
chance that the carrier will not find
the cul des sac section altogether
(missed deliveries). Providing the
delivery workers with route maps can go
far in minimizing these omissions.
F: This
single street is served by three carrier
routes (yellow, blue, and red). The carrier delivering the
yellow route must not only pay attention
to starting and stopping address ranges,
she must also constantly note the
even-numbered, odd-numbered, or both
even and odd-numbered side of the street
designations. She, or the persons
delivering other routes, can easily
miss or duplicate some deliveries.
