The fast urbanization in China makes it all the more important to find sustainable solutions that are both comprehensive and energy-efficient. Because of its important role in lowering logistical expenses and pollutant emissions, intermodal transport is generally seen as an effective method of coordinating transportation operations, helping to address the growing economic and environmental issues. Considering the characteristics of a growing city, this article lays out a multi-criteria method for selecting which new initiatives for China's public transportation system should be prioritized. "Electric municipality bus," "light rail system," and "modernization to the current fleet and optimization" are the three enhancement initiatives that are outlined. Using transportation-related economic, social, and environmental sub-criteria, this research applies TOPSIS, an analytic hierarchy method and fuzzy approach for order preference by resemblance to ideal circumstance application, to prioritize transportation projects. The study aims to improve city life in Chongqing, China, by identifying the most environmentally friendly development projects. Applying the analytical hierarchy method (AHP), the relative importance of several sustainability criteria was established for use in making strategic decisions. The alternative projects for the given city have been ranked using the fuzzy TOPSIS approach. However, the investigated results show the supportive response of hybrid to environmental sustainability and vice versa for non-hybrid vehicles. However, the energy consumption in public transport remains a leading hurdle in sustainability across the three modes of transport: taxis, rail transit and buses. Finally, computer trains in public transport also surprisingly deal with environmental sustainability to keep the current & forthcoming generation from ecological harm. However, theoretical and empirical policy suggestions have been proposed to become clean & green shortly.
中国快速的城市化进程使得找到全面且节能的可持续解决方案变得尤为重要。由于多式联运在降低物流成本和污染物排放方面发挥着重要作用，它通常被视为协调运输运营的有效方法，有助于解决日益严重的经济和环境问题。考虑到城市发展的特点，本文提出了一种多标准方法，用于确定中国公共交通系统应优先推进哪些新举措。文中概述了“电动市政巴士”“轻轨系统”以及“现有车队现代化与优化”这三项改进举措。本研究运用与理想情况相似的排序偏好的逼近法（TOPSIS）、层次分析法以及模糊方法，通过与运输相关的经济、社会和环境子标准，对交通项目进行优先级排序。该研究旨在通过确定最环保的发展项目来改善中国重庆的城市生活。运用层次分析法（AHP）确定了若干可持续性标准的相对重要性，以便用于战略决策。使用模糊TOPSIS方法对给定城市的替代项目进行了排序。然而，调查结果显示混合动力车对环境可持续性有支持作用，反之非混合动力车则不然。然而，公共交通中的能源消耗仍然是出租车、轨道交通和公交车这三种交通方式实现可持续性的主要障碍。最后，公共交通中的计算机列车在应对环境可持续性方面也令人惊讶，以防止当前及未来几代人受到生态危害。不过，已经提出了理论和实证政策建议，以便在不久后实现清洁与绿色。
