Lane Choice Behavior at Toll Plaza Under Mixed Traffic Conditions Using TODIM Method: A Case Study

The main objective of the present study is to prepare an algorithm for choice lane causing minimum delay based on drivers’ perception using a Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM) method. TODIM (Portuguese acronym Interactive Decision-Making) prospect theory. effect human behavior at toll plaza studied user survey. data required collected by pictorial survey plaza, nearby petrol pumps, and hotels. includes scenarios understand preferences about vehicle composition, number vehicles in queue, changes. In case plazas, lanes are alternatives, composition lanes, changes choose target all different criteria. A entering area has take care available conditions select alternative minimize delay. method requires weightage matrix criteria, which obtained Analytical Hierarchical Process (AHP). It seen that queue highest followed proportion heavy vehicles. These prime factors affecting plaza. can be further used predict best emerging vehicle, will help its
