The objective of this research is to develop an appraisal system for theassessment of green highway construction. A highway is chosen, among thevarious infrastructure types, for its broad coverage of areas and its largeshare of a nation’s infrastructure development. Literature reviews and theMax-Min Fuzzy Delphi method are first employed in this study to identifythe major categories and their corresponding items for assessing the“greenness” of a highway project. The five major categories identified arepreservation of eco-systems, plantings to reduce CO2 emission, preservationof material resources, waste reduction, and water conservation. TheAHP (Analytical Hierarchy Process) method is then employed to determinethe weighting of major categories as well as the sub items in each category.As a result, this study proposes an appraisal rating system to assess the“greenness” of a highway construction project. |
