In this paper we study the worst case performance of two heuristic algorithms proposed for the Rural Postman Problem on a non directed graph (RPP) and on a directed graph (DRPP). In both cases the worst case ratio is obtained; for the RPP this ratio is 3/2, whereas for the DRPP the ratio is unbounded. In order to obtain more significant bounds, this ratio has also been obtained as a function of certain parameters that can be computed from the particular data of each instance, thus producing a finite bound for the worst case ratio of the heuristic algorithm for the DRPP.
