Transit Optimization Constraints

• Inventory flow problem formulation:

• • Conservation of passengers & vehicles moving between nodes at each time step

• Passenger movement

• • constrained only by vehicle capacities
  • may transfer freely at any node (!)

• Vehicles constrained by:

• • connectivity matrix
  • station / waypoint node capacity
  • max fleet size limit

• Arbitrary constraints somewhat easy to add:

• • e.g. “max vehicles on a link segment”
  • e.g. “max capacity on a group of waypoints”
