AN ISSUE FOR INTEGRATED LAND-USE TRANSPORTATION PROBLEM

This paper proposes an Equity based Land-Use Transportation Problem (ELUPT) which is intended to measure the relationship by estimating the potential trip generation of zonal development based on the equity consideration. In the resulting bi-level programming model, the upper level sub-problem maximizes traffic production incorporating equity constraints, while the lower level sub-problem is a combined trip distribution/deterministic user equilibrium traffic assignment problem. A genetic algorithm based method is applied to solve the complex and non-smooth programming models; illustrated by the Nguyen-Dupuis network. The proposed methodology will offer a significant tool for analyzing the interactions between land-use and transportation bearing in mind the equity issue.
