An integrated model of facility location and transportation network design
Sanjay Melkote,Mark S. Daskin +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate a model that simultaneously optimizes facility locations and the design of the underlying transportation network, motivated by the simple observation that changing the network topology is often more cost-effective than adding facilities to improve service levels.

Network Design and Transportation Planning: Models and Algorithms
TL;DR: It is shown that many of the most celebrated combinatorial problems that arise in transportation planning are specializations and variations of a generic design model, Consequently, the network design concepts described in this paper have great potential application in a wide range of problem settings.
