Recent research on the scheduling of bus timetable.

AuthorsFactors considered in the studyNotes

Gkiotsalitis et al. [3134]Rolling horizons bus fleet allocation, holding control, and transit rescheduling strategiesThe purpose is to increase the coordination among running buses, avoid vehicle bunching, and obtain the accurate evaluation of bus timetable

Salicru et al. [35]; Steiner and Irnich [36]; Zhang et al. [37]; Ma et al. [38]Passenger travel demands extracted from multisource traffic datasetsSmarter computational methods were provided to reduce operational costs and improve the server level of bus timetable

Domschke [39]; Ceder et al. [40]; Eranki [41]; Liu et al. [42]; Ibarra-Rojas et al. [4345]Bus line network, route choices of passengers, waiting time at nodes, and the operational costsThey developed a series of models to represent the route choice behaviours of various passengers and minimize the operational cost of bus timetables

Wong et al. [46]; Shafahi and Khani [47]; Kang et al. [48]; Guo et al. [49, 50]; Chu et al. [12]; Abdolmaleki et al. [51]Trains’ run times, station dwell times, interchange waiting times of all passengers, transfer redundant time, and the network accessibilityA series of nonlinear programming models were provided to achieve the synchronize timetables in the transit network and improve the transfer efficiency of passengers
