“…The criteria were selected on the basis of an analysis of criteria used to assess transport in similar studies. The important criteria that influence transport planning in related research are: travel time [7,10,18,19,24,31]; transport costs [3,10,12,18,24]; number of trains [12]. Transport costs are an important indicator for the railway operator.…”

The aim of this study is to elaborate on an integrated approach for transport planning in railway passenger transport in the case of uncertainty. The methodology consists of four stages. In the first stage, the parameters of a multi-criteria model in the case of uncertainty were determined. This includes defining the criteria for selection of a transport plan; formulation of the alternatives of the transport plan; formulation of the strategies and probability variants of passenger flow variation for each strategy. In the second stage, the weights of the probability variants of the strategies for change in passenger flow were determined using the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) method. The alternatives of the transport plan were ranked by applying the sequential interactive modeling for urban systems (SIMUS) method based on linear programming. The results for the values of the criterion of ranking obtained through the SIMUS method and the weights of the variants of passenger flow variation calculated with the AHP method were used as input in the expected values in the decision tree. The selection of a suitable alternative in the case of uncertainty was conducted in the third stage by applying the decision tree method. In the fourth stage, verification of the results was made using Laplace’s criterion and Hurwitz’s criterion. The integrated multi-criteria approach was applied for Bulgaria’s railway network. The multi-criteria approach elaborated herein could be used for decision-making in the case of uncertainty about passenger flow; to investigate different strategies of passenger flow variation and to make decisions in case of instability of passenger flow or lack of sufficient travel data.

“…By analysing the general characteristics of trips and noticing the links between different types of disabilities and ways of participating in traffic, the modes of transport [19], and the purpose of making trips, it is clear that PWDs have specific requirements regarding the transport system. In that sense, people living with more severe forms of disability have less mobility compared with some other types of disabilities, which is logical.…”

“…A model for the criteria selection regarding the quality of passenger service can be used as a benchmark, from the perspective of persons with disabilities as the main passenger category. ÐorCević et al ( 2019) have created such model in rail transport [19], while similar models can be created in road transport using different methodologies such as fuzzy FUCOM and neutrosophic fuzzy MARCOS [20], TRUST approach [21,22], CoCoSo in integration with fuzzy power Heronian function [22], and fuzzy PIPRECIA [23].…”

This study presents the results of the research on travel behaviour for persons with different types of disabilities. Persons with disabilities are a group of participants with specific traffic requirements often not included in traffic research and consequently adequate planning of urban transport. To obtain the data, a home interview was conducted on a representative sample. The paper presents the main results of the research and indicates the specificity of the requirements of this group of users. The results are compared with the results of the same research conducted for the development of the Smart Plan of Novi Sad and the results of similar research abroad. The main goal is to obtain a qualitative and quantitative database of the requirements of this group of users as a basis for creating sustainable urban mobility plans.

The success of any activity and process depends fundamentally on the possibility of balancing (symmetry) needs and their satisfaction. That is, the ability to properly define a set of success indicators. The application of the developed new multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods can be eliminated or decreased by decision-makers’ subjectivity, which leads to consistency or symmetry in the weight values of the criteria. In this Special Issue, 40 research papers and one review study co-authored by 137 researchers from 23 different countries explore aspects of multi-criteria modeling and optimization in crisp or uncertain environments. The papers proposing new approaches and elaborate case studies in the following areas of applications: MCDM optimization in sustainable engineering, environmental sustainability in engineering processes, sustainable multi-criteria production and logistics processes planning, integrated approach for modeling processes in engineering, new trends in the multi-criteria evaluation of sustainable processes, multi-criteria decision-making in strategic management based on sustainable criteria.
