Abstract

This study proposes two bi-objective optimization problems for locating key stations of a metro network in both discrete and continuous demand modes. Traditionally, designing a metro network based on optimization techniques consists of two approaches. The first approach locates a number of alignments and their stations simultaneously, while the second approach involves locating key stations, designing a core network, and locating secondary stations. In locating key stations processed by a single objective model, the number of produced and attracted trips to the key stations is maximized. This paper considers a second objective for this stage to maximize the coverage of key stations on origin/destination (OD) trips. A fuzzy goal programming model is established to solve the bi-objective model and provide some Pareto-optimal solutions. The previous single objective model and the proposed model with continuous demand mode are applied to a real network. Results show that the proposed model significantly increases the coverage of key stations on OD trips with only a slight reduction in the number of produced and attracted trips.
