  • Context-Sensitive Approach for Network Selection of Infrastructure Transportation Projects
    Abstract: Context Sensitive Solutions aim to provide a systematic and comprehensive approach to project development from inception and planning through operations and maintenance. Its goal is to achieve a procedure that provides an outcome harmonizing transportation requirements with community needs and values. Multi Criteria Analysis can assist in the assessment of the various competing needs and provide a systematic approach in evaluating options. Merging the Context Sensitive Solutions approach and the Multi Criteria Analysis, a procedure has been implemented to select the most effective investment projects solving a classical multi-objective optimization problem under budget constraints. This paper explores this potential and identifies the required steps to be taken to allow for evaluating this concept. An example case is presented demonstrating the process and identifies future steps to be undertaken to ensure the widespread application of the process.
