A Multi-Target Urban Transportation Structure Model under the Optimal Capacity Limitation of Road Networks

The construction of urban transportation infrastructures on the supply side is severely limited due to the extensive development of central urban land. Therefore, optimizing the traffic structure with limited resources is particularly important. The work used the optimum capacity of the road network as one of the constraints. Multi-objective linear programming was used to establish the traffic structure model. The total travel volume, energy consumption, travel quality, and social cost were selected as the optimization objectives of the urban transportation structure. The influencing factors of infrastructure capacity (e.g., total travel demand, optimal capacity of road network, slow traffic capacity, and parking lot capacity) were selected as the constraint conditions in optimizing urban transportation structure. The objective was to develop an optimization model considering the constraints of urban infrastructure. Finally, the optimal traffic structure was compared with the actual travel structure using the actual case of Yuexiu District, Guangzhou, China. Suggestions were provided for optimization.
