Footprints of the Future: Cleaner and Faster Transportation with Shared E-Scooter Operational Models by Ömer Kaya

“…To this end, a four-step scientific and strategic solution approach is developed: (i) the identification and detailed explanation of 5 main and 24 sub-criteria, (ii) the weighting of criteria through the Analytical Hierarchical Process (AHP), Multi-Influencing Factor (MIF), and Best–Worst Method (BWM) in order to increase the sensitivity and robustness of the study, (iii) obtaining a suitability map for the solution of implementation, site selection, and service areas problems of operational models, and (iv) assigning shared e-scooter stations and analyzing their performance levels with COmplex PRoportional ASsessment (COPRAS). The results show that, in Erzurum, the central three districts are the most suitable for service areas. …”
