Assessment of Intelligent Transport System Criteria Groups for Road Transport System Evaluation
Intelligent transport systems (ITS) are increasingly used to improve the performance of road transport systems, yet their overall contribution depends on how different impact criteria are prioritised. The aim of this study is to determine the relative importance (weights) of ITS criteria groups for…
