Service Corridor Planning
Runner Routes That Work Under Pressure
Service corridors are the arteries of a functioning dining room. When runner routes cross bussing paths, guest walkways, and bar traffic, service slows and staff collide — especially during peak evening covers.
We map dedicated runner routes, bussing paths, and back-of-house connections to minimise cross-traffic. Corridor widths, door swing clearances, and pass-to-table distances are specified for your staffing model.

Corridor Elements
Runner Routes
Primary paths from kitchen pass to every dining zone. Routes designed for tray carry clearance and unobstructed sightlines during peak service.
Bussing Paths
Return routes from dining tables to dish collection points. Separated from outgoing runner paths to prevent cross-traffic and tray collisions.
Back-of-House Connections
Links between dining floor, pass, bar, and storage areas. Door positions and swing directions verified for two-way traffic during service.
Pass-to-Table Distance
Maximum travel distance from expo pass to furthest table calculated against your ticket time target. Hot-hold station placement where distances exceed threshold.
