Abstract

A nested heuristic approach that uses route length approximation is proposed to solve the location-routing problem. A new estimation formula for route length approximation is also developed. The heuristic is evaluated empirically against the sequential method and a recently developed nested method for location routing problems. This testing is carried out on a set of problems of 400 customers and around 15 to 25 depots with good results.
