Publication: Applications of Advanced Technologies in Transportation Engineering (2004)
Abstract
This paper presents a methodology for transit route network optimization. The objectives are to minimize transfers while maximizing service coverage. The formulation consists of representation of transit route network solution spaces that are locally and iteratively defined, and a stochastic search scheme capable of finding the expected global optimal result based on a combined simulated annealing and greedy search algorithm.
