Abstract:Bus hub is characterized with multiple berths, each serving specific bus routes. When bus routes at different berths share the same stops en route, passengers to the shared stops may rush among these berths to catch the newly arriving bus, causing inconvenience and deteriorating bus service level. Thus, this research attempts to optimize bus route assignment to the berths at a bus hub to minimize passenger transfer distance among the optional berths. The problem is modeled with integer linear programming, with… Show more
