Assume that you are in charge of Ethiopian Highways Department. Many highways need to be rehabilitated. But due to limited finance, if the government asks you to provided a list of the first 10 highway reconstruction projects for its final decision, What will you do as a planner? Then this book may help you a lot in prioritizing. It tries to build a comprehensive multi-criteria decision making model. Out of the entire road network of the nation, 68 big highways were screened. Then 4 core criteria were used namely: social benefits, economic benefits, administrative importance, and capital cost. The criteria were further cascaded into 22 indicators. The criteria were weighted first by Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method. Then Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) method was used for all indicators. Each criteria separately gives top 20 ranked highways. And the automated model calculates everything, ranks the highways, and even gives you map of them. Your problem or prioritization solved!
