New Dijkstra algorithm optimizes public transit routing

Researchers have developed a new algorithm called Transfer Aware Dijkstra (TAD) to improve pathfinding in public transit systems. This algorithm correctly accounts for buffer times at stops, which is crucial for transferring passengers. Experiments on London and Switzerland networks demonstrated that TAD achieves over a two-time speed-up compared to existing methods while ensuring optimal routing results. AI

    Adapting Dijkstra for Buffers and Unlimited Transfers

    arXiv:2603.11729v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In recent years, RAPTOR based algorithms have been considered the state-of-the-art for path-finding with unlimited transfers without preprocessing. However, this status largely stems from the evolution of routing research,…
