标题:Evaluation of Different Transportation Solutions with the Application of Macro Simulation tools and Multiple Criteria Group Decision Making/Aiding Methodology
摘要:AbstractThis article presents a multiple criteria evaluation of different redevelopment variants of a certain section of a major street in a medium – sized metropolitan area. Each of the variants comprises different transportation solutions and concepts as well as distinct investments in transportation infrastructure. The variants have been designed heuristically with the application of PTV VISUM 11.0 computer traffic simulation system and evaluated according to the principles of Multiple Criteria Decision Making/Aiding (MCDM/A) and Group Decision-Making (GDM) methodologies. Traffic simulation for all variants considered has been carried out and different parameters distinctive of particular variants have been generated. A consistent family of criteria has been defined to evaluate the proposed transportation variants. In the set of criteria interests of the group decision maker (Municipal authorities) and three major stakeholders, including: passengers, investor, public transport operator, and municipal authorities have been taken into consideration. Computational experiments have been carried out with the use of ELECTRE III and AHP methods.
