Evaluating sustainable transport strategies with incomplete information for Taipei City

This study uses a hybrid approach to deal with incomplete information in evaluating and prioritizing transport sustainability strategies for Taipei City. Fifteen strategies taken from the three categories of land use planning, shifting modes, and using clean energy are examined. A sustainability compound index covering aspects of society, economy, environment, energy, and finance is constructed to measure transport sustainability.
