Abstract

This paper deals with the real-time regulation of traffic within a disrupted transportation system. We present an approach of ant colony optimization in order to solve a spatial reconfiguration problem of multimodal transport network. It is a multicriteria problem. In fact, it consists of real-time route planning with three criteria to be optimized: The travel time, the travel distance and the passenger number of the vehicles. We adapted this metaheuristic algorithm, and improved the search space exploration
