BIKE SHARING STATION SITE SELECTION FOR GAZIANTEP

Abstract

Bike sharing is a traffic precaution service that bicycles are available for shared use to individuals for a short term. It is vital for this program to select the infrastructures scientifically. This study aims to determine the location of bike sharing station in Gaziantep by using fuzzy AHP and TOPSIS. Thus, firstly selection criteria are determined by the literature and municipal officials for siting bike stations. Then the criteria weights are calculated by using Fuzzy AHP to cope with uncertainty. Lastly, potential station sites are ranked using TOPSIS. The generally applicable model provides policy makers with the ability to decide on bike sharing siting.
