In　order　to　improve　the　level　of　service　of　a　public　transport　(PT)　system　and　solve　the　problem　of　transfer　inconvenience,　a　novel　planning　method　for　multi-hierarchy　PT　network　and　transfer　terminals　location　is　presented　based　on　the　following　ideas,　defined　below:　transfer　terminals　by　classification,　service　for　the　districts,　PT　network　by　hierarchy,　planning　layer　by　layer,　optimizing　dynamically　for　PT　network　and　multimodal　terminals　planning.　Most　methods　described　in　the　literature　for　bus　route　network　planning,　bus　rapid　transit　(BRT)　route　location　and　transfer　hub　location　ignore　the　dynamic　relationship　between　PT　route　network　planning　and　transfer　hub　location.　The　objective　of　this　paper　is　to　present　a　methodology　to　simultaneously　optimize　PT　route　network　and　transfer　terminal　location　planning.　The　transfer　terminal　location　is　based　on　the　analysis　of　the　transfer　terminals　importance　indicator.　The　objective　functions,　constraints　and　location　optimization　methods　are　different　for　every　level　of　the　PT　network　hierarchy.　By　using　the　trip　assignment　volume　result　of　the　route　network　scheme,　the　importance　indicators　are　recalculated　and　the　multimodal　terminals　are　relocated.　According　to　the　current　transfer　terminal　locations,　the　multi-hierarchy　PT　network　is　redesigned.　The　PT　network　and　transfer　terminal　locations　are　iteratively　adjusted　until　the　assessment　results　meet　the　equilibrium　objectives.　This　proposed　method　provides　a　reference　for　future　PT　network　and　multimodal　terminal　location　planning.　©　2010　ASCE.
