Abstract
It was the goal of this thesis to emphasize the outstanding role of network centrality for transportation network design. This was undertaken by, firstly, conceptualizing the relations of network centrality to other transportation network key performance indicators (KPIs) capturing network performance: consolidation, link frequency, transportation distance and time, schedule reliability, network vulnerability, and system capacity flexibility. This provided a qualitative understanding of transportation network centrality.
