A brief review is presented of traffic assignment models for transit networks. Two transit route
choice models are evaluated: one that is based on the concept of optimal strategy and the
other based on the concept of routes perceived to be minimal. In both models, the transit
riders are assumed to select a set of attractive transit lines for their trip from origin to
destination; the models differ in the way that this subset of lines is selected. The
mathematical formulations and the corresponding solution algorithms are given. The transit …
