Express Route Parameter

I am trying to get access to route parameters using express in node.js. For some reason, "req.body" keeps coming up as an empty object. Here is my code in server.js:

const express    = require('express');
const exphbs     = require('express-handlebars');
const bodyParser = require('body-parser');
const https      = require('https');

//custom packages  ..
//const config  = require('./config');
const routes  = require('./routes/routes');


const port = process.env.port || 3000;


var app = express();

//templating engine Handlebars
app.engine('handlebars', exphbs({defaultLayout: 'main'}));
app.set('view engine', 'handlebars');





//connect public route
app.use(express.static(__dirname + '/public/'));


app.use(bodyParser.json());

//connect routes
app.use('/', routes);






app.listen(port,  () => {
    console.log( 'Server is up and running on ' + port );
});

And here is my routes file:

//updated
const routes = require('express').Router();


routes.get('/', (req, res) => {
  res.render('home');
});



routes.post('/scan',  (req, res) => {
    res.status(200);

    res.send("hello");
});



routes.get('/scanned',  (req, res) => {

    const orderID = req.params;
    console.log( req );

    res.render('home', {
        orderID
    });
});

module.exports = routes;

When the server is up and running, I am navigating to "http://localhost:3000/scanned?orderid=234". The console log that I currently have in the routes.js file is showing an empty body (not recognizing "orderid" parameter in the URL).
