“…Other studies combined operators' and community's interests[36,40,61,66,102,114,119,120,122,123,129,131,133,142,146], and the three perspectives together[39, 41-44, 48, 49, 55, 57, 81, 87, 118, 132, 139-141, 143-145]. The functions itself sought to minimise uncovered/unsatisfied demand[141], passengers' travel time/cost[42-44, 48, 49, 55, 56, 81, 118, 144], staff dissatisfaction[140], minimise costs or maximise revenue[36, 55, 57, 61, 81, 87, 102, 114, 120, 122, 129, 131-133, 140-143, 145], minimise energy consumption[36,66,114,133], fuel consumption[120,139], distances travelled by vehicles[118], ecological/environmental impact[81,87,144], and minimise emissions or maximise reduction in emissions[36, 42, 44, 48, 49, 56, 114, 118, 119, 122, 123, 129, 131-133, 140, 141, 146]. Some authors applied more specific functions as maximise car ownership and total number of trips, with user equilibrium assignment models at the lower level[40,41], minimise social-cost (congestion and environment pollution)[43] and Gini coefficient[49], maximise environmental equity[39], social welfare[48,61], and trans-VOLUME 11, 2023 9 This article has been accepted for publication in IEEE Access.…”
