Abstract

Time definite motor carriers provide very reliable scheduled truck transportation service between specified terminals. They provide service competitive with airfreight carriers over continental-scale distances at a much lower cost. This paper provides time definite models for multiple allocation p-hub median problems and hub arc location problems. Service levels are imposed by limiting the maximum travel distance via the hub network for each origin-destination pair. Computational results are presented to demonstrate the effects of the time definite service levels on practical network design for truck transportation in North America.
