Abstract: This paper proposes a methodology to evaluate an Intermodal Transportation System (ITS). These systems are very complex and a lot of different actors are involved. The evaluation process should take into account concurrent needs and goals. Moreover, the data and the importance of different indicators are strictly related to the judgments of individual experts. Then it is necessary to have a methodology able to collect all the independent judgments and merge them in order to evaluate the whole system performances. The paper proposes a general methodology based on the Analytic Hierarchy Process to evaluate the behavior of the ITS system. Moreover, the hierarchy including the typical factors that compose a logistic system has been identified. In order to show the effectiveness of the proposed methodology, we present a real case study consisting of the port of Trieste (Italy), the intermodal terminal and the highway connecting them. Several Key Performance Indicators are evaluated to provide assessment procedure.
