You'll have to look into Composing:

https://our.umbraco.com/documentation/Implementation/Composing/

I've set this up with the following:

public static class RouteConfig
{
    public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
    {
        routes.MapRoute...
    }
}


public class RoutingComponent : IComponent
{
    public void Initialize()
    {
        RouteConfig.RegisterRoutes(RouteTable.Routes);
    }

    public void Terminate()
    {
    }
}   

public class PackageComposer : IUserComposer
{
    public void Compose(Composition composition)
    {
        composition.Components().Append<RoutingComponent>();
    }
}

(Obviously the first and second class could be combined quite easily, but I had a particular reason for breaking it out).

Namespaces you'll need are:

using Umbraco.Core;
using Umbraco.Core.Composing;

Thanks for that Andy, however I can't seem to get this to work for creating custom MVC routes... it works great when trying to create new ScriptBundles though, so feel like I'm getting somewhere, thank you!

Would this be causing problems because BundleConfig.RegisterBundles was being called in OnApplicationStarting while RouteTable.Routes.MapRoute was called in OnApplicationStarted?

Thanks again, Warren

Not sure I'm afraid. All I would add is that I found I had to register any custom controllers with the IoC container.

I.e. in PackageComposer.Compose() (above) I've also got:

composition.Register<CriteriaController>();
