Summary:

This paper studies the transportation demands of different stakeholders, namely urban residents, entrepreneurs and tourists. It also studies the construction of network model optimization functions and corresponding indicators, and analyzes what kind of impact the bridge collapse will have on different stakeholders. Urban residents attach great importance to convenience in their daily lives. They usually like to travel by walking or cycling. They also prefer to use public transportation facilities. Entrepreneurs mainly rely on the efficiency of goods transportation to develop their businesses. They pay more attention to the accessibility of commercial and industrial areas. Tourists, on the other hand, prefer convenient connections between tourist attractions and hotels, as this makes their visits more convenient. After the bridge collapsed, the traffic pressure shifted to other main roads, such as I-95 and I-895. This led to longer commuting times and a significant increase in transportation costs, exerting varying degrees of impact on the travel demands of residents, entrepreneurs and tourists.Based on the analysis of the network model, this study gives targeted optimization suggestions. For urban residents, it is necessary to build pedestrian lanes and bicycle lanes and improve the existing travel network. In this way, the accessible travel range of urban residents can be expanded. This article also suggests improving the connection of public transportation to make residents' travel more convenient. For entrepreneurs, it is necessary to optimize the layout of main and secondary roads, so that the pressure of goods transportation can be relieved. For tourists, it is necessary to enhance the transportation facilities near tourist areas to improve their travel experience. These optimization measures aim to increase the resilience, efficiency and fairness of the transportation system, providing more convenient and sustainable transportation services for residents, enterprises and tourists
