Comparison of Signalized Intersections Based on Start-Up Time of Pedestrians: Fuzzy MCDM Model
摘要
Pedestrians are the most vulnerable and heterogeneous category of traffic participants requiring special attention. A very important aspect of traffic safety is their behavior at pedestrian crossings. In this paper, the research centers on signalized pedestrian crossings without countdown displays with a sample related to the female gender. The research is focused on start-up time using the method of comparative analysis in five different cities. For this purpose, an integrated MCDM (Multi-criteria decision-making) model consisting of Fuzzy FUCOM (Full Consistency Method) and MARCOS (Measurement Alternatives and Ranking according to COmpromise Solution) was applied. Additionally, a comparative and sensitivity analysis were performed. The research results indicate that female pedestrians in the city of Bijeljina have the best start-up time. Also, some additional tests of validation have been performed.
