Goal-programming approach to assessing urban transit systems. Paper presented at the 54th Annual Meeting of the Transportation Research Board TRB, Washington, January 1975.

Of primary concern in this study is the development of a procedure for using the goal-programming technique, a modification and extension of linear programming, to evaluate urban transit systems for meeting the transportation-related goals of a community. A computer program is employed to ease application of the goal programming and allow flexibility for a complex set of equations.
