A companion paper introduces models and algorithms for large‐scale zone‐based evacuation planning in which each evacuation zone is assigned a path to safety and a departure time. It also shows how to combine zone‐based evacuations with contraflows and impose additional path‐convergence and nonpreemptive constraints. This paper evaluates these algorithms on a real, large‐scale case study, both from...
In zone‐based evacuation planning, the region to evacuate is divided into zones, and each zone must be assigned a path to safety and departure times along the path. Zone‐based evacuations are highly desirable in practice because they allow emergency services to communicate evacuation orders and to control the evacuation more precisely. Zone‐based evacuations may also be combined with contraflows (to...
