I am trying to use the Network Analyst to find the "best" route from A to B using the bus line. I have just a sample of the whole line, but my main concern at the moment is to find the best (in terms of time AND length) route such that I don't need to switch bus line.
For example: to go from A to B I can use bus line 1 and 2, taking 10 minutes and 5 km. But I would likely waste time in changing from bus line 1 to bus line 2. Let's say bus line 3 is also close to my point A. I'd prefer to take bus line 3, which takes 15 minutes and 7 km, but I don't have to change any bus. This would be my "best route".
The "switching bus line" would become a variable contributing to change the "cost" of the route (as time and length). Is there a way I can retrieve my best route in such a way? Of course other variables will be as important for determining the best route, but at present this is the problem I would like to solve (hopefully).
