Optimal Fares for Public Transport
Zitieren Sie bitte immer diese URN: urn:nbn:de:0297-zib-8698
- The \emph{fare planning problem} for public transport is to design a system of fares that maximize the revenue. We introduce a nonlinear optimization model to approach this problem. It is based on a d iscrete choice logit model that expresses demand as a function of the fares. We illustrate our approach by computing and comparing two different fare systems for the intercity network of the Netherlands.
