Consider the user equilibrium assignment and the lowest system cost assignment discussed in section 12.5.2 (Figure 12.17). Zones 1, 2, and 3 represent a company’s warehouses all located on a privately-owned parcel of land. The vehicles shown are delivery trucks rather than passenger cars. Which method of traffic assignment is more appropriate?

What will be an ideal response?
