Abstract

Abstract

In order to solve the problem of operation dilemma for highway passenger transport in high-speed railway era, the door to door operation mode of highway passenger transport was proposed, and a bi-level programming model was built.The maximum total daily operating profit of highway passenger transport provider was taken as the object to optimize the end line network of highway passenger transport with the door to door mode in the upper model.The lower model calculated the passenger flow of transport network at equilibrium state.Case analysis was carried out based on real data from Dalian to Shenyang transport section.Calculation result shows that the total daily operating profit of highway passenger transport increases firstly and then decreases with the increase of end line number.Operating 4 lines and dispatching 25 coaches daily are best.The total daily operating profit of highway passenger transport provider with original operation mode after the opening of high-speed railway is 7 270 yuan with 99 yuan for ticket price and 130 person-time for average daily passenger flow.The total daily operating profit of highway passenger transport provider with door to door operation mode is 37 755 yuan with [88, 105]yuan for ticket price region and 778 person-time for average daily passenger flow.The door to door operation mode of highway passenger transport can effectively improve the market share and operating profit of highway passenger transport.With the profit of highway passenger transport provider guaranteed, this mode can significantly improve overall service level of passenger transport.
