Abstract :

As a method of transportation, the bus rapid transit system (BRT), also known as BRT, has a greater occupancy rate and is better suited for travelling over longer distances. Evaluating the performance of potential alternatives is necessary because of concerns over sustainability and the need to improve BRT's performance to increase customer satisfaction. On the other hand, criteria that are predicated on the fundamental idea of the emission performance of BRT call for ambiguous or indeterminate expert evaluations to be addressed using single-valued neutrosophic sets (SVNSs). An integrated paradigm for making decisions based on several factors is shown here. To evaluate and rank the solutions, we used a measurement of the different options available and ranked them with the Neutrosophic MARCOS method.
