Vehicle routing problem is known to be an NP-hard problem, and is traditionally solved by some heuristic approaches. This paper investigates the application of the computer method COMSOAL to the optimal vehicle routing problem. This paper discusses the adaptation of the COMSOAL approach to the known set of simple vehicle routing example problem. The results show that the COMSOAL can be a good possible approach to solve the vehicle routing problem.
