Highlights Facility location-routing problem considering costs, accident risk and equity. Consider equity using the Gini coefficient. Real world scale case study. Solution procedure combines. Lagrangian relaxation and column generation.

    Abstract This paper develops a model to analyze facility location and routing decisions in the context of hazardous materials transportation. A novel aspect of this model is the explicit consideration of equity using the Gini coefficient, an established computation to evaluate equity. To solve the model, we develop a method that combines Lagrangean relaxation with column generation and illustrate that method using a realistic case study. We present a case study of hazardous material railway transportation with consideration of social horizontal equity categorizing the population by household income.
