Abstract
It is important to strengthen the research on urban rail transit (URT) existing line renovation strategies. In this paper, we investigate the optimization of bottlenecks that are less attractive but have strong travel demand in existing URT networks. A URT local line optimization model is constructed. The maximum passenger flow and minimum project cost are chosen as the optimization objective for the benefit of both passengers and operators, and several actual constraints are considered in the proposed model, such as the station interval. In order to obtain higher computational efficiency and accuracy, a passenger flow allocation method is embedded in a genetic algorithm with elitist preservation. Taking the local network of the Beijing URT as a case study, the calculation results show that the designed algorithm can quickly and effectively obtain the optimal solution, and the generated local line scheme is able not only to meet the regional travel demand, but also to optimize the connection relationship of the existing URT network. This study can provide a reference method for increasing the attraction of URT and optimization of existing URT networks.
