Sažetak
The paper presents the analysis of implementing the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) in solving the problems in the area of traffic. The traffic sector is one of the most important sectors of the present times and an efficient traffic system requires continuous planning. The projects of investing into the traffic infrastructure are investment projects that are characterised by a number of specifics. These are the projects that have an extremely long lifetime (some thirty years), they are not profit-oriented, as a rule they are financed by the state of the local administration, and they are primarily of use for the social community. The decision-making process, which includes also making decisions on investments is an extremely complex one, and the decision-maker has to envisage the future, and consequently make the decisions in a modern and flexible manner. The methods used in the process of evaluating the investment projects in traffic are numerous, and usually distinguished by the optimisation criteria. The projects, namely, cannot be evaluated through the prism of a single criterion, nor based on several criteria either. The most common optimisation criterion is of economic character ; however, for the purpose of long-term and high-quality solutions it is necessary to introduce, apart from the economic criterion also other optimisation criteria such as the technological, technical, ecological and many others. Therefore, in such situations it is essential to implement the methods of multi- criteria decision-making which will eventually result in making the optimal decision. It will be determined in the paper to which extent the AHP method for decision-making regarding traffic problems is implemented and for which categories of traffic problems.
