Integrating Sustainable Transportation in Decision-Making Processes: A Comparison Between Cost-Benefit Analysis and Multi-Criteria Decision Aiding
The aim of this paper is to give an overview of the paradigms underlying cost-benefit analysis (CBA) and multicriteria decision aiding (MCDA) and to compare the two methodologies through the prism of sustainable transportation. We first describe the different types of rationality in decision-aiding, followed by a brief presentation of the decision-aiding methodologies. Subsequently, based on a literature review, we summarize their strengths and weaknesses as identified by the various authors and conclude with a short discussion regarding some issues specific to transportation.
