Optimal strategies: A new assignment model for transit networks
Heinz Spiess,Michael Florian +1 more
TL;DR: A model for the transit assignment problem with a fixed set of transit lines is described, formulated as a linear programming problem of a size that increases linearly with the network size that solves the latter problem in polynomial time.

Transit network design and scheduling: A global review
Valérie Guihaire,Jin-Kao Hao +1 more
TL;DR: A global review of the crucial strategic and tactical steps of transit planning: the design and scheduling of the network and a classification of 69 approaches dealing with the design, frequencies setting, timetabling of transit lines and their combinations is proposed.

A review of urban transportation network design problems
TL;DR: This review intends to provide a bigger picture of transportation network design problems, allow comparisons of formulation approaches and solution methods of different problems in various classes of UTNDP, and encourage cross-fertilization between the RNDP and PTNDP research.

Bus network design
Avishai Ceder,Nigel H. M. Wilson +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, an algorithm is presented that can be used to design new bus routes taking account of both passenger and operator interests; however, this algorithm focuses on only a single component of the overall bus operations planning process described in this paper.

Common Bus Lines
Claude Chriqui,Pierre Robillard +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the problem of common bus lines is formulated as an optimization problem within a probabilistic context, and the optimal subset of routes "to be selected" is obtained.

The Design of Routes, Service Frequencies, and Schedules for a Municipal Bus Undertaking: A Case Study
W. Lampkin,P. D. Saalmans +1 more
TL;DR: A case study of the reorganization of a municipal bus undertaking to consider reorganizing the route structure, to advise on frequencies to operate on the chosen routes, to compile timetables, and to design bus schedules so that the recommended system could be implemented with the minimum number of active buses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Some Issues Relating to the Optimal Design of Bus Routes
TL;DR: The main difficulty in determining any "optimal" routing originates from the fact that the objective function total cost is a nonconvex function of the assignment; the higher the demand for trips on a route, the better is the service that one can provide as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Traffic Equilibrium Model of Travel by Car and Public Transit Modes
TL;DR: In this paper, an equilibrium model of travel by private car and one or more public transit modes is developed. But the salient features of the model are the clear distinction between the flow of vehicles and flow of transit passengers and the means of modeling the interaction that occurs between private cars and public transit vehicles that use the same road links of the network.
