Abstract :
In this paper, we present a model of a multimodal public transport network based on high-level Petri nets. This model takes into account both the transport means (bus, tramway, subway, regional train) and the passengers. This model is then simulated in order to measure the impact of the decisions of regulation on the passenger flows.
