Abstract
Due to the constant development of society, increasing quantities of commodities have to be transported in large urban centers. Therefore, network planning problems arise as tools to support decision-making, aiming to meet the need of finding efficient ways to perform such transportations. This paper reviews a bi-level formulation, a one level formulation obtained by applying the complementary slackness theorem, Bellman’s optimality conditions, Big-M Linearization and also presents a heuristic procedure, through combining a randomized constructive algorithm with an improved Relax-and-Fix heuristic, so high quality solutions could be found.
