Summary:
To solve the school vehicle routing problem (SBRP), exact, heuristic and metaheuristic methods can be found in the literature. However, there is still no consensus on the best approach for the different configurations that the problem can take. The objective of this work is to apply the Iterated Local Search metaheuristic for routing a real case of rural school transport (RSBRP), minimizing the total cost and respecting the specific restrictions of the problem. The algorithms will be applied to route 17,200 students registered to use rural transport in the public education network in the state of Rio de Janeiro.
