公路运输解决方案具有令人难以置信的适应性，能够连接国内和国际。道路运输通过先进的技术提供了一个更环保、更高效、更安全的未来。对称性和不对称性在工业应用中广泛存在，物流和供应链也不例外。多准则决策模型被认为是一种平衡目标对称性和准则冲突性的复杂性工具。这项研究可以帮助利益相关者了解交通网络的现状，并通过MCDM方法规划未来的可持续发展措施。本文的主要目的是评价和比较现有公路运输系统的可持续发展，以确定其中任何一个系统是否可以在经济合作与发展组织（经合组织）国家得到有效发展。介绍了道路交通系统可持续性评价的综合熵-CoCoSo方法，提出了评价方法的框架流程。熵方法根据真实的数据确定决策准则的权重。熵值法的优点是减少了决策者的主观影响，增加了客观性。CoCoSo方法被应用于对经合组织国家的道路运输可持续性绩效进行排名。我们的调查结果显示了可持续发展表现最好的三个国家：日本、德国和法国。这些国家拥有发达的基础设施和运输服务。冰岛、美国和拉脱维亚在国家中排名最后。这种方法有助于政府、决策者或投保人审查当前的运营情况，衡量其他国家的表现，并制定新的道路运输发展战略，以取得更好的效果。
Road haulage solutions are incredibly adaptable, having the capacity to link domestically and internationally. Road transportation offers a greener, more efficient, and safer future through sophisticated technology. Symmetry and asymmetry exist widely in industrial applications, and logistics and supply chains are no exception. The multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) model is considered as a complexity tool to balance the symmetry between goals and conflicting criteria. This study can assist stakeholders in understanding the current state of transportation networks and planning future sustainability measures through the MCDM approach. The main purpose of this paper is to evaluate and compare the sustainable development of existing road transportation systems to determine whether any of them can be effectively developed in the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) countries. The integrated entropy–CoCoSo approach for evaluating the sustainability of road transportation systems is introduced, and the framework process is proposed. The entropy method defines the weight of the decision criteria based on the real data. The advantage of the entropy method is that it reduces the subjective impact of decision-makers and increases objectivity. The CoCoSo method is applied for ranking the road transportation sustainability performance of OECD countries. Our findings revealed the top three countries’ sustainability performance: Japan, Germany, and France. These are countries with developed infrastructure and transportation services. Iceland, the United States, and Latvia were in the last rank among countries. This approach helps governments, decision-makers, or policyholders review current operation, benchmark the performance of other countries and devise new strategies for road transportation development to achieves better results.
