+   * So, maybe this can be more simplify.
+   * <p>
+   *  @Todo: include toll in the NetbasedCosts (if set), so it is also pat of the VRP
+   *  @Todo: Find a way to reuse the netbasedCosts over the iterations(?) to avoid re-setting this up???
+   *    <li> Pro: saves computation times,
+   *    <li> Con: There is now update of the costs if the network (load) changes.
+   *    <li> --> do it at least per Carrier or generally or stay as it is? --> Discuss with KN
