Abstract: We propose a new formulation for the assignment problem over congested transit networks. The congestion effects due to insufficient capacity of system elements (transit lines) are considered to be concentrated at transit stops. Waiting times on access links are therefore dependent on passenger flows. A special formulation of the transit network is used in order to model correctly the congestion effects. Finally, algorithms for solution are analyzed.
