Centrality in Strategic Transportation Network Design An application
Efficient and effective transportation networks are backbones to modern societies. Methodologically, their design has mainly been driven by optimization approaches oftentimes with a strong cost focus. Their strategic planning, however, should go beyond de

Foreword Industrialized societies cannot exist without powerful transport networks. The quality of such networks can be measured along many dimensions: time and cost efficiency, flexibility, and reliability, to name a few. However, in the scientific literature the design of networks is primarily discussed under the objective of cost minimization. Furthermore, it is regularly assumed that all necessary information for the optimization is available, while in real life strategic network design decisions this is hardly the case. Thus, the usual assumptions of strategic network design models do reflect real life conditions only to a limited e
