Fare Planning for Public Transport

Please always quote using this URN:urn:nbn:de:0296-matheon-2388
  • In this paper we introduce the fare planning problem for public transport which consists in designing a system of fares maximizing revenue. We propose a new simple general model for this problem. It is based on a demand function and constraints for the different fares. The constraints define the structure of the fare system, e.g., distance dependent fares or zone fares. We discuss a simple example with a quadratic demand function and distance dependent fares. Then we introduce a more realistic discrete choice model in which passengers choose between different alternatives depending on the number of trips per month. We demonstrate the examples by computational experiments.
