Robust railway station planning: An interaction between routing, timetabling and platforming
We present an efficient method to increase the robustness in railway stations. Minimizing the real travel time is introduced as a practical robustness measure. The interaction between routing, timetabling and platforming appears essential in large stations. We evaluate changes based on their potential and we can handle infeasible solutions. The general applicability of our approach is proven by analyzing two different case studies.
