Abstract

The transport hub is an important component of the national and regional transportation system, and it is also the key node in the public transportation network. A reasonable site of the transportation hub determines the transfer efficiency directly, and affects the management of the whole traffic network. To reduce traffic congestion, rational hub sites should be considered. In order to evaluate the hub site, the contact number triangular fuzzy decision model was used, which is a theory based on the connection number and triangular fuzzy numbers. Weights and evaluation by the value of triangular fuzzy judgement will be used to reduce the deviation caused by personal preferences or statistical errors. This new method is more accurate given the merits of alternative hubs' sorting, by reducing subjective and objective factors to allow decision-makers to choose the best option.
