Oklahoma City, OK (March 18, 2008) - Companies across the US are scrambling to find relief from ever-rising fuel costs. More often than ever those companies are turning to Appian Softwares Direct Route solution for an answer.

At the current average, a trucker putting 200 gallons of diesel into his tanks spends more than $710, which is $200 more than he would have spent for an identical amount a year ago according to a recent Transport Topics Editorial. If a driver fills the tank twice each week, within one months time, he would have spent $1,600 more thats $32,000 per month for a company with 20 trucks. Effective route optimization is the key to reducing fuel used and holding these costs in line.
