Introduction
This report concerns the design of networks for personal public transport. It describes the problem as presented to the Study Group by Martin Lowson of Advanced Transport Systems, along with details of how the approach to the problem is formulated and discussion of preliminary results. Also, the report discusses methods for forming an initial feasible network and then how the method of simulated annealing can be applied to improve upon the solution.
