Abstract

Vehicle routing problems with general time windows are extremely difficult to solve. However, the time windows in a particular problem may have a special structure which can be exploited. We consider a single-vehicle arc routing problem in which the arcs are partitioned into deadline classes. It is shown that a cutting-plane approach works well for this problem.
