Comparison between public transport network design methodologies using solution quality evaluation

Because of the expected shift from ordinary to autonomous vehicles, the role of public transport (PT) will have to be enhanced and thus there is a need to pay more attion to its design procedures and evaluation processes. This study compares previous models and methodologies by creating a quality evaluation platform that enables a comparison of their solution qualities. The evaluation framework developed consists of an integration component between the criteria and objectives of the passengers, the agencies, and the authorities. A set of performance indicators is selected from the literature to build an evaluation rating system.      «
