Reviewing the existing equity of accessibility approaches, particularly the transit models, revealed that these methods tend to consider the actual economic condition of individual or group living in various areas, real transport network and travelers traveling patterns (especially during peak traffic periods). Existing transit accessibility approaches have typically proposed simple time-based measurements to explain the transit network accessibility under hypothetical road conditions and accessibility to transit corridors (transit stops). These studies overlooked to estimate transit accessibility. As a result, these approaches failed to describe the actual impedance of the transit network. These simple methods tend to capture the objective of accessibility. The aim of this research is to analyses urban accessibility considering its two components the performance of the transport network and the attractiveness of the destinations using a more dynamic approach. This will allow us to obtain profiles that highlight the daily variations in accessibility in the study area, and identify the influence of congestion and the changes in location choice behavior. Accessibility conditions change throughout the day, as do the causes of these changes, namely congestion in the road network and the population distribution in the city. Each transport zone has its own accessibility profile, and thus its own specific problems, which require solutions that are more specific. The dynamic approach proposed in this paper involves calculating the accessibility of each transport zone. This will allow a dynamic approach to population distribution in the city.
