A system of criteria for the selection and assessment of HW/OS routes, which would allow selecting the most appropriate route of transportation in terms of cost and time, is drawn up and can be practically applied to any territory.
Abstract
The improvement of transportation systems and technologic equipment leads to changing technical capabilities of this equipment. With the development of technologies, industrial development is also inevitable, resulting in correspondingly increasing need of transportation of HeavyWeight and OverSize (HW/OS) cargo. The application of a systematic approach in HW/OS cargo transportation processes allows reducing costs of delivery of such a cargo several times, which leads to a dramatic change of economic development and investment attraction conditions. Thus creating a system of criteria for the selection and assessment of HW/OS routes, which would allow selecting the most appropriate route of transportation in terms of cost and time, is expedient for this reason. The algorithm for the assessment of HW/OS cargo transportation routes will be drawn up in this article. This algorithm enables an objective evaluation of HW/OS transportation processes comparing different modes of transport, route segments, cargo transportation and cargo handling technology, and it can be practically applied to any territory.

Public engagement in strategic transportation planning: An analytic hierarchy process based approach

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated whether and how multiple-criteria decision analysis, based on the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) approach, may support the participatory process of the public in the whole transportation planning process, especially in strategic planning and at the initial stages during which planning options are drawn up and the public are rarely involved.

An empirical analysis of three econometric frameworks for evaluating economic impacts of transportation infrastructure expenditures across countries

TL;DR: This paper investigated the impact of transportation infrastructure expenditure across countries using data from 1992 to 2010 using three econometric frameworks (ordinary least squares, random-effects and random-parameters models) and found that the impact varied greatly with the country's existing transportation infrastructure and the reliance of specific economic sectors on transportation.
