Optimized Development of Multi-modal Trasportation Network
The proposed project will develop methods for optimizing the selection and scheduling of interrelated alternatives in multi-modal transportation networks, thus optimizing the evolution of those transportation systems through successive stages. The methods will extend previous ones developed at the University of Maryland and adapt them to the analysis of multi-modal transportation systems such as rail transit networks with feeder buses, connected urban street networks with bus lanes, and rural road networks partly usable by heavy trucks. These methods will enable their users to explore the effects on system development, performance, demand, costs and benefits of various objectives, policies, and constraints (e.g., on funding, other resources, equity, service quality, energy use, and environmental impacts).
