Strategy choice in transit networks. (2013)
Journal Article
Fonzone, A., Schmoecker, J.-D., Kurauchi, F., & Hemdan, S. M. H. (2013). Strategy choice in transit networks. Journal of the Eastern Asia Society for Transportation Studies, 10, 796-815

Public transport passengers are assumed to choose routes that minimise the expected travel times. In networks with high-frequency services this requires the adoption of hyperpaths. An experimental validation of the hyperpath model has been carried ou... Read More about Strategy choice in transit networks..
