An algorithm is proposed in this paper for solving two-dimensional bi-level linear programming problems without making a graph. Based on the classification of constraints, algorithm removes all redundant constraints, which eliminate the possibility of cycling and the solution of the problem is reached in a finite number of steps. Example to illustrate the method is also included in the paper.
