Abstract
One of the basic problems in strategic planning of public and
rail transport is the line planning problem to find a system of lines and its associated frequencies. The objectives of this planning process are usually manifold and often contradicting. The transport operator wants to minimize cost, whereas passengers want to have travel time shortest routes without any or only few changings between different lines. The travel quality of a passenger route depends on the travel time and on the number of necessary changings between lines and is usually measured by a disutility or impedance function. In practice the disutility strongly depends on the line plan, which is not known, but should be calculated.
The presented model combines line planning models and traffic assignment model to overcome this dilemma. Results with data of Berlin\u27s city public transportion network are reported
