An agent-based simulation framework is extended to design efficient large-scale public
transport networks. It goes beyond existing approaches by incorporating a dynamic demand …

Urban transportation contributes significantly to CO 2 emissions. Public transport systems
are a good strategy to reduce these, but the emissions generated by public transport …

The customized bus (CB) transit is recognized as an effective transportation mode offering
more flexible and demand-responsive service than traditional bus transit with fixed route and …

The transit network design problem involves determining a certain number of routes to
operate in an urban area to balance the costs of the passengers and the operator. In this …

The transit network design and frequency setting problem (TNDFSP) is a complex
combinatorial optimization problem. Generally, the nature of multiobjective in TNDFSP has …

This study proposed a hybrid optimization model for urban bus transit route network design
problem (TRNDP). Although several mathematical methods had been developed to make …

Public Transportation Buses are an integral part of our cities, which relies heavily on optimal
planning of routes. The quality of the routes directly influences the quality of service provided …

The transit network design and frequency setting problem is related to the generation of
transit routes with corresponding frequency schedule. Considering not only the influence of …

Presented in this research paper is an attempt to apply a cat swarm optimization (CSO)-
based algorithm to the urban transit routing problem (UTRP). Using the proposed algorithm …

The research presented in this paper proposes a Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO)
approach for solving the transit network design problem in large urban areas. The solving …
