Transport decision processes have traditionally applied cost–benefit analysis (CBA) with benefits mainly relating to time-savings, and costs relating to infrastructure and maintenance costs. However, a shift toward more sustainable practices was initiated over the last decades to remedy the many negative impacts of automobility. As a result, decision processes related to transport projects have become more complex due to the multidimensional aspects and to the variety of stakeholders involved, often with conflicting points of view. To support rigourous decision-making, multicriteria decision analysis (MCDA) is, in addition to CBA, often used by governments and cities. However, there is still no consensus in the transport field regarding a preferred method that can integrate sustainability principles. This paper presents a descriptive literature review related to MCDA and CBA in the field of transport. Among the 66 considered papers, we identified the perceived strengths and weaknesses of CBA and MCDA, the different ways to combine them and the ability of each method to support sustainable transport decision processes. We further analysed the results based on four types of rationality (objectivist, conformist, adjustive, and reflexive). Our results show that both methods can help improve the decision processes and that, depending on the rationality adopted, the perceived strengths and weaknesses of MCDA and CBA can vary. Nonetheless, we observe that by adopting a more global and holistic perspective and by facilitating the inclusion of a participative process, MCDA, or a combination of both methods, emerge as the more promising appraisal methods for sustainable transport.

从项目评估中的可持续运输角度审查成本效益分析和多准则决策分析

传统上,运输决策流程应用了成本效益分析(CBA),其收益主要与节省时间有关,而与基础设施和维护成本有关的成本。然而,在过去的几十年中,人们开始转向更可持续的做法,以纠正汽车的许多负面影响。结果,与运输项目有关的决策过程由于多维方面和所涉利益相关者的多样性而变得更加复杂,通常具有相互矛盾的观点。为了支持严格的决策,除了CBA之外,政府和城市也经常使用多标准决策分析(MCDA)。但是,在运输领域仍未就可整合可持续性原则的首选方法达成共识。本文介绍了有关运输领域MCDA和CBA的描述性文献综述。在66篇经过考虑的论文中,我们确定了CBA和MCDA的优缺点,组合起来的不同方法以及每种方法支持可持续交通决策过程的能力。我们基于四种合理性(客观主义,顺从性,调节性和反身性)进一步分析了结果。我们的结果表明,两种方法都可以帮助改善决策过程,并且根据所采用的合理性,MCDA和CBA的优缺点可能会有所不同。尽管如此,我们观察到,通过采用更具全局性和整体性的观点,并促进包含参与性过程,MCDA或这两种方法的结合,
