The article discusses modern methods of designing a transport network for urban areas, which include optimization procedures – determining routes and traffic intervals. The model should become a tool to more intensively develop the transport infrastructure, design a new generation transport network, characterized by efficiency, high quality service and a passion for the importance of urban passenger traffic. The heuristic design model is formulated for urban areas as an optimization problem (cost minimization). The simulation consists of three stages: 1) a heuristic algorithm for generating a set of possible routes; 2) genetic algorithm for finding optimal routes; 3) choice of network configuration. The output of the model is the bus routes, the intervals and the capacity of the rolling stock.
