运输基础设施（特别是发达国家的运输基础设施）评估的最新技术水平正在朝着包括一系列比传统上更广泛的影响的方向发展。在一般的评估框架中，多标准分析是成本效益分析的替代或补充，特别是在评估更广泛的分配和其他影响时。在这方面，它在某种程度上解决了传统CBA中已确定的弱点。本文提出了一种新的方法，将更广泛的影响纳入评估框架（SUMINI）的基础上的综合指标和MCA。该方法说明了一个特定的例子，更广泛的影响，即公平，通过事后评估的两个大型欧盟运输基础设施（TEN-T）的案例研究。结果表明，SUMINI评估公平的影响以及案例研究突出的灵活性，反映不同的政策或项目目标的方法。研究结论是，这种方法不应该被视为是在竞争与传统的CBA，但它可以是一个容易采用和补充的方法。这项研究的价值在于为如何评估公平和其他更广泛的影响这一历史性难题提供了一个新的重大方法学进展。这项研究具有很强的国际意义，因为欧洲委员会发表了TEN-Ts审查报告，而且大规模城市间运输计划具有跨国性质，国家和跨国利益攸关方团体参与了这些计划的批准和供资，大量人口可能受到公平和其他更广泛的影响，各区域的目标和优先事项存在很大差异，交通决策者。
The state of the art in appraisal of transport infrastructure (particularly for developed countries) is moving towards inclusivity of a set of wider impacts than has traditionally been the case. In appraisal frameworks generally Multi-Criteria Analysis (MCA), features as either an alternative to, or complementary with, Cost Benefit Analysis (CBA) particularly when assessing a wider set of distributional and other impacts. In that respect it goes some way towards addressing an identified weakness in conventional CBA. This paper proposes a new method to incorporate the wider impacts into the appraisal framework (SUMINI) based upon a composite indicator and MCA. The method is illustrated for a particular example of the wider set of impacts, i.e. equity, through the ex-post assessment of two large EU transport infrastructure (TEN-T) case studies. The results suggest that SUMINI assesses equity impacts well and the case studies highlight the flexibility of the approach in reflecting different policy or project objectives. The research concludes that this method should not be viewed as being in competition with traditional CBA, but that it could be an easily adopted and complementary approach. The value in the research is in providing a new and significant methodological advance to the historically difficult question of how to evaluate equity and other wider impacts. The research is of strong international significance due to the publication of the TEN-Ts review by the European Commission, as well as the transnational nature of large scale interurban transport schemes, the involvement of national and transnational stakeholder groups in the approval and funding of those schemes, the large numbers of population potentially subject to equity and other wider impacts and the degree of variation in the regional objectives and priorities for transport decision makers.
