Analysis on Urban Transit Priority Development Level Based on AHP Fuzzy Comprehensive Evaluation

The level of urban transit priority development is an important indicator which measures urban transport development, and plays an important role in the formulation of traffic policies and measures. In this paper, Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is used to determine the weights of the factors which reflect actual levels of the urban transit priority development (UTPD). Based on the above factor set and evaluation set, quantitative research could be made with reference to the proposed fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model in order to make a comprehensive evaluation on UTPD. Experts' advices and factors' weights are both fully considered in the process of evaluation. Finally, Nanjing UTPD is chosen as a case study. The results reveal that the proposed model could particularly reflect the evaluation process in which multi-factors are involved as well as the actual level of UTPD is reflected.
