  • In order to reasonably arrange vehicle routes according to time request in transportation production, a mathematical model for vehicle routing problem with time windows(VRPTW) was constructed, and a heuristic genetic algorithm was put forward to solve it. In the algorithm, chromosomes were constructed, initial groups were produced and optimized, their capability was estimated by the existent ability of individual, and the optimized value was computed. The number of evolving offspring is 100, operating time is 10, VRPTW with one center depot and eight branch depots was solved by correspond program. The result indicates that goods are distributed with three trucks in three routes, total distance is 483 km, total time is 15.55 h, there is no idle time for truck, and all warehouses are served on time. Obviously, the algorithm is effective and feasible.
