The Check Haulage dialog is used to calculate the cycle times and summary truck times for a selected Block, using the associated haulage route and equipment parameters.

This allows you to check a route between a selected block or if no selection has been made, between a stockpile, and a destination of your choice following the available roads within the project.

This function provides verification that a route is feasible and is taking the expected amount of time.
