Sustainability of Resilient Transport System

This article represents an additional contribution to the research on transport resilience. The project's purpose is to create a methodological procedure for transport resilience measurement. In their previous work, the authors identified four core areas of measurement. These areas are adaptability, absorption (robustness), human factors and recovery, and the fourth one – sustainability. As an objective of this paper, the authors are going to describe the relationship between this last area and transport resilience. Such knowledge is needed so that transportation administrators can better understand what parts of sustainability can affect the level of resilience and how to approach the identification of resilience indicators within sustainability. Hence, the authors divided sustainability into four dimensions. In each of them, the authors explained what aim of transport sustainability might be achieved and what risk can be mitigated by various elements of the given sustainability dimension. The authors have included the definition of transport resilience and an explanation for all its partial aims in the introduction and second part of this paper.
