“…Recent techniques, known as the hesitant methods in AHP, take the decision-makers' assessments into account and determine the factors' final order of importance based on these uncertainties. When there are multiple sets of evaluators, one of the most vital components of the MCDM is the formulation of the final consensus priority of the alternatives or criteria [5]. Due to its pervasiveness, the issue of consensual prioritization of alternatives has a negative impact on multiple AHP methods.…”

Consensus is difficult to acquire among a group of transportation specialists with diverse areas of expertise over the most relevant set of criteria considering a transport related problem. For example, when establishing a Park-and-Ride (P&R) system, if an expert favors the public transport criterion, and another focuses on the economic area, the problem is considerably difficult to solve. Therefore, this research provides a methodological solution including the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Spherical Fuzzy Sets (SFSs) with the purpose of addressing both sorts of difficulties concurrently, i.e., taking hesitant scores into account and synthesizing stakeholders' viewpoints through a mathematical procedure. SFSs are preferable compared to other solutions due to their flexible specification of the belonging function. In current study, the spherical AHP method is applied to a P&R system location problem to evaluate the results of the participating transportation experts from diverse backgrounds. Additionally, similarities and differences between the obtained results and the fuzzy AHP calculation are emphasized. Based on the results public transport accessibility is the most important criterion when establishing a P&R system. However, when compared to the AHP Triangular Fuzzy Sets multi-criteria technique, the sub-criteria vary significantly. The results give urban transport planners a clear guideline that the implementation of the P&R system should run in parallel with the optimization of public transport.INDEX TERMS Park-and-ride, accessibility, analytic hierarchy process, spherical fuzzy set.

The importance of public transportation service quality research is significantly increasing in recent years, it is the key to understanding and analyzing passengers’ preferences. Different approaches are utilized to explore users’ preferences however, dominantly these apply merely subjective scoring of the attributes and alternatives of the mobility. In this paper, we design a specific model for public transportation mode choice which is capable of integrating subjective scoring with scoring by objective measures such as distance or time. Owing to this purpose, we combine the outranking Preference Ranking Organization METHod for Enrichment Evaluation (PROMETHEE) as a method to evaluate passengers’ preferences for tangible and intangible criteria with the fuzzy theory, and the Graphical Analysis for Interactive Aid (GAIA) plane to visualize the interactions between attributes as well as to test the robustness of the results via sensitivity analysis. The contribution of this paper is the constructed integrative method that is less subjective than the well-known models but also keeps the freedom of individual evaluators in expressing their preferences. Moreover, another significant issue of mode choice analysis is the group consideration, which is also refined in the new methodology by taking into account not only the mean of group preferences but also their range. A common characteristic of public surveys, the possible vague responses of the layman pattern is solved with the fuzzy approach to reduce the risk of uncertain scoring. The proposed model acts as a great base for the fuzzy inference system that can facilitate mode choice for passengers within a changing environment. The efficiency of the new methodology is demonstrated through a real-world case study of Budapest city, the obtained results are supporting underground mode service quality and highlighting its impact on citizens’ behavior in favor of public transport.
