摘要

Public transit planning is a user-oriented problem, respectful of financial issues and involves different stakeholders such as the general public, the transportation provider and the local government. One of the main components of public transit planning is the transit network design (TND) problem. This research is an attempt to perform transit network design and analysis in the city of Sanandaj, Iran using the capabilities of GIS and Honeybee algorithm. Objectives of this study are formulating a multi-objective model of the TND problem, developing a GIS-based procedure for solving the TND problem and examination of the solutions using artificial metaheuristic methods such as honeybee algorithm. The transit network design approach in this research, aims to reduce the walking distance, the total travel distance and the total number of stops needed for a suitable transit service in Sanandaj, Iran. One of the contributions of this research is developing a transit network design with utilizing a spectrum of GIS software modelling functionalities and using the abilities of the artificial intelligence in modelling and assessment of the transit network.
