Abstract

In this paper we consider the well known Hub and Spoke problem according to the Warsaw Public Transport System. Our approach is based on data available on the website of the ZTM (Zakłady Transportu Miejskiego - Urban Transport Company) and an evolutionary algorithm method that detects logistic hubs well connected (with the high capacity of available transport means) with the center of the city and other detected hubs. These hubs can become the skeleton of the public transport system and for instance can be good points for localization of the Park and Ride car parks.

Keywords: hub and spoke, evolutionary algorithm
