During the last train period, passengers will not successfully reach their destination if the timetables of the various transfer station lines are not coordinated. This paper proposes a general model to optimize the last train timetables of urban rail networks and maximize origin-destination (OD) accessibility for metro networks during the last train period. By using a generalized cost function, all transportation activities involved in an urban rail network are effectively described, and a generalized cost function is established for the last train as a criterion for its accessibility. A mixed-integer programming model that pays more attention to passengers’ effective travel routes and accessibility of the entire OD route is proposed. A genetic algorithm combined with a K-shortest path algorithm is developed to calculate a rescheduling solution within a satisfactory running time (e.g., 35 min). Finally, comparative experiments are conducted using the Xi’an urban rail network as a case study. The results show that the objective function of OD accessibility is more favorable to last train passengers than to the number of successful transfer passengers at transfer stations. This increases the number of passengers successfully arriving at their destination by 12.03%. The proposed methodology assist in cost-effective coordination of the last train timetables and make accurate recommendations to improve passenger OD accessibility using information guidance.
