Abstract EN
Urban rail transit fare strategies include fare structures and fare levels.
We propose a rail transit line fare decision based on an operating plan that falls under elastic demand.
Combined with the train operation plan, considering flat fare and distance-based fare, and based on the benefit analysis of both passenger flow and operating enterprises, we construct the objective functions and build an optimization model in terms of the operators’ interests, the system’s efficiency, system regulation goals, and the system costs.
The solving algorithm based on the simulated annealing algorithm is established.
Using as an example the Changsha Metro Line 2, we analyzed the optimized results of different models under the two fare structures system.
Finally the recommendations of fare strategies are given.
