| Abstract: | This paper describes the application of optimization techniques to the problems of garage location and bus routing. The technique employed involves the decomposition of a garage location and bus routing model into two submodels. Solutions for the garage location and bus routing submodels are combined iteratively to find an optimal solution for the overall optimization model. Significant cost savings realizable for the Transit Authority of River City (Louisville, Kentucky) were calculated by implementing the results. |
