Abstract
The several parallel routes within one transportation corridor must be special in function to come to the transportation balance between demand and supply, to improve the transportation efficiency of routes, also to decrease the transportation accidents. Firstly, the relevant influence factors for route function configuration are analyzed. Then, the function group of the parallel routes is defined, the mathematic model on routes' demand characteristic is given, and a multi-objective system optimization model to optimize the function configuration is established. Moreover, the reliability of the parallel routes is evaluated. At last, the measures of assuring the optimization from me engineering and management points are discussed respectively.
