About this document
UE vs. SO Traffic Assignment Methods by Ali Emir Sisman is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This paper compares User Equilibrium (UE) and System Optimum (SO) traffic assignment methods for auto trips, highlighting that while UE is widely used, it may not minimize total system travel time. The study analyzes a Sioux Falls highway network using GAMS optimization software, finding that SO results in a lower total system travel time compared to UE. The authors propose that achieving SO can be facilitated by implementing marginal tolls on road links.
