“…First, there are often dozens of stations and, given little advanced knowledge about the transportation network, the first phase of route planning, i.e., the establishment of the relationship between origin and destination, requires localising these two locations first. This is a visual search task which is not required in either TSP problems where all locations are targets (MacGregor & Ormerod, 1996;MacGregor et al, 2004) or in route choice from maps studies where origin and destination are either highlighted or learned before testing (Bailenson et al, 1998;Brunyé et al, 2010). Second, identifying and comparing route options and choosing the most viable path (the second and third phases in route planning: Brunyé et al, 2010) often requires taking into account transits between different lines or even transportation modes and these transits often have substantial impact on travel time or convenience (Ettema, Friman, Gärling, Olsson & Fujii, 2012;Raveau, Guo, Munoz, & Wilson, 2014).…”
