Improved model formulations for hub covering problems are proposed. We discuss multiple and single allocation problems, including non–increasing quantity–dependent transport time functions for transport links for the latter case. Computational results are presented, which show that the new solution approaches for problems with quantity–independent transport times clearly outperform previous work on this topic.
