A Novel Model for Transfer Synchronization in Transit Networks and a Lagrangian-based Heuristic Solution Method

To realize the benefits of network connectivity in transfer-based transit networks, it is critical to minimize transfer disutility for passengers by synchronizing timetables of intersecting routes. We propose a mixed-integer linear programming timetable synchronization model that incorporates new features, such as dwell time determination and vehicle capacity limit consideration, which have been largely overlooked in … Read more
