Beijing suffers a great road transport problems, including environment pollute, congestion, and etc. A research supported by the national basic research program of China to solve transport related environmental problems introduced an environmentally sustainable transport research framework. Results showed that the dramatic increasing of total vehicles was the key driving force. NOx and CO2 emitted by vehicles were two main pollutes that might touch the environmental capacity in 2020. Policy instruments were proposed to control the total vehicle, the NOx emission and the CO2 emission. The time arrangement of policy instruments was partly accepted by the local government. Continuous monitoring showed that the effects of the policy planning were mixed.

Transport Problems

A high-quality network is currently a prerequisite for sustainable transport systems. The sharp increase in automobile traffic has resulted in increased transport problems. The most serious transport problems include traffic infrastructure congestion, increased accident risk and of course environmental impact. Daily mobility and securing the transport of goods is one of the key transport objectives. The most critical point of the road network is the intersection. Therefore, great emphasis is placed on the vehicle to pass smoothly and safely when passing through this place. In this paper an analysis of the current status of the selected roundabout is created. Based on the survey it is proposed three solutions to improve the traffic conditions of the intersection. Aimsun micro-simulation was also used to create solutions.

Support Decision Making

Problems related to sustainable urban transport have gained in importance with the rapid growth of urban agglomerations. There is, therefore, a need to support decision-making processes in this area, a trend that is visible in the literature. Many methods have already been presented as a useful decision-making tool in this field. However, it is still a significant challenge to properly determine the relevance of the criteria because it is one of the most critical points of many presented techniques to solve decision problems. In this work, we propose two new approaches to determining the relevance of particular decision criteria effectively in sustainable transport problems. For this purpose, we examine a study case for the evaluation of electric bikes evaluated against eight criteria, which have been taken from earlier work. We calculate the relevance of each criterion using four different approaches and then evaluate their effectiveness using a reference ranking and popular multi-criteria decision analysis methods. The results are compared with each other by using similarity coefficients. Finally, we summarize the results obtained and set out further methods of development.
