Abstract:

Scheduling of transit networks is one of the most addressed problems at the mathematical optimization science, due to the increase of public transportation in the last decade. Researchers have introduced various formulations to address the problem of timetabling, using different objectives like bus synchronization and passenger demand. In this paper we present two mixed-integer linear programming models with the objective of minimizing passenger waiting times at transitional transfer nodes, taking into consideration high passenger demand that occurs at certain times.

Supplemental Notes:

This paper was sponsored by TRB committee AP050 Bus Transit Systems.
