Abstract
Climate change, toxic greenhouse gas emissions, and air pollution are environmental challenges that our society needs to overcome. Transportation in general is one of the most significant sources of environmental pollution and it responsible of 27% of Air pollution in the environment, but Road transportation is one of the most adaptable forms of transportation and can link both domestically and internationally. In addition, it provides for a greener future with the passage of time, thanks to modern and advanced green industrial applications. However, the Road transportation system and its level of development vary from a country to another due to several criteria. This paper presents the Entropy-MCDM methods model to evaluate the Road transportation system in the countries of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). Five MCDM techniques were applied to classify the sustainability performance of road transportation in OECD countries, and to compare them based on 12 sub-criteria. The results revealed that Japan is the top-ranked country among OECD countries, thanks to the policies and measures it adopts, from the initiation of advanced technological projects specifically for sustainable transportation systems, to offering all facilities and exemptions to encourage people to use sustainable transportation means. Germany and France follow Japan in the rankings. Finally, by comparing the classification results with other decision-making methods, it was found that help decision-makers evaluate and select the most appropriate solutions that fulfill several criteria simultaneously while considering their conflicting nature.
