An Optimization Model of the Layout of Public Bike Rental Stations Based on B+R Mode

In order to find out the optimal layout of bike rental stations for B+R mode, a bi-level programming model combined of genetic algorithm and the joint model with mode split and traffic assignment model is built. The optimal layout plan can minimize the total travelling cost and facility cost. A case is used to test and verify the practicability of the model. The result shows that the model can effectively solve the layout problem of bike rental stations for B+R mode and can offer suggestions for related planning.
