Abstract

A tramway is a type of public transportation system that uses streetcars running on rail tracks. It provides a reliable and comfort means of travel for short to medium distances. When choosing the best site location for a tramway, several factors should be considered to ensure effectiveness and efficiency. The aim of this paper is to identify the main criteria for selecting the best location of tramway routes, and statement the influence of each criterion through the utilization of the analytic hierarchy process. The outcome showed that the primary criteria were (traffic flow, land use, travel time, traffic emission, traffic noise), and their influences based on analytic hierarchy process method were 37.83% for traffic flow, 29.43% for land use, 19.11% for travel time, 7.97% for traffic emission, 5.65% for traffic noise.
