I have a bunch of points that fall on or near a linear features (routes/roads). Is there a way to use the Locate Features Along Route tool in FME to identify which route those points fall on?

You can use the NeightborFinder to locate the closest linear feature (Candidate) to each of the points (Base). The point features will then receive the attributes of the closest route.
