A Review on Transit Assignment Modelling Approaches to Congested Networks: A New Perspective

This paper reviews a number of studies on both frequency-and schedule-based transit assignment models that have been proposed thus far, wherein various behavioural assumptions on a wide range of aspects are embedded. With a reinvestigation on the relationships and homogeneity between different modelling approaches, it explores the representative veins of the models, and thereby extends a new perspective to the existing reviews under a historical context. Meanwhile, both advantages and disadvantages of these methods are presented. On the strength of the analyses and discussions of the state-of-the-art transit assignment models, further research directions are suggested.
