Customized bus route design with pickup and delivery and time windows: Model, case study and comparative analysis

作者：

Highlights：

• The customized bus route design issue is modeled as a Multi-Trip MPDPTW problem.

• A bi-objective optimization model to minimize passenger and operating costs

• A heuristic algorithm with adaptive variable neighborhood search is presented.

• Customized bus is proved to be economically efficient by using empirical data.
