| Summary: | 博士 === 國立交通大學 === 工業工程與管理系所 === 93 === Hsin-chu is a newly developed technology-oriented city; the execution of public transpiration is the key factor to maintain the equally developed metropolitan Hsin-chu. The authority needs to take fairness and efficiency into consideration when making decision on route alternative selections of public transpiration. The plan, evaluation, decision-making process, and execution of route alternative selections of public transportation not only influences many facets of urban development, such as, the distribution of industries, population migration, the expansion of urban commutes, and economic activities, but also influences the key elements of the development of public transportation. Thus, the focus was placed on providing an objective means of the evaluation.
Four methods are used to solve the complexity issue in this decision-making process, including Multiple-criteria Decision Method (MCDM), and combined Analysis Hierarchy Process (AHP), Fuzzy theory, and TOPSIS (Technique for Order Performance by Similarity to Ideal Solution). The utilization of the four methods lowered the complexity and information uncertainty of the decision-making system of route alternative selections. This study employed the quantitative and qualitative criteria. To simplify the research process, we quantified the qualitative criteria with Fuzzy theory, thus, all the estimation criteria are all in quantitative formats. Then, we selected the priority of the route alternatives with TOPSIS and developed the evaluation of decision making of route alternative selections.
The research data were obtained from government officials, academic researchers in the expertise areas of transportation, environmental protection, and urban planning. The results showed that there were three classifications, and the highest (0.245) was route service range, the second highest is convenience of transportation, the third is protection of civil rights. The evaluation criteria showed the three groups; route service was the highest and protection of civil rights was the lowest. In conclusion, route #2 was selected as the most suitable alternative for the planning of the metropolitan Hsin-chu area.
