We formulated the problem as a classic Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows and solved it using an approach based on a clustering algorithm and column generation method. A real world case from a school in Bogota, Colombia is presented including 600 students to pick up ´ in near 400 nodes located in urban and rural areas. The obtained results demonstrate a reduction as the problem’s complexity and an improvement on the performance measures of the proposed method.}, number={1}, journal={Ingeniería}, author={Lopez Santana, Eduyn Ramiro and Romero Carvajal, Jose de Jesus}, year={2015}, month={Mar.}, pages={111–127} }
