Abstract :
[en] We describe the process which led to the specification of a multi-criteria decision model and its implementation into a decision-aiding tool for choosing appropriate road pavements and surfacing in road works in the Southern part of Belgium. The tool was intended to support field engineers managing road works in making good decisions. We report on the elaboration process of the underlying model in a working group involving experts in road works as well as in multi-criteria decision methods and led by the general manager of the Ministry of Equipment and Transport. In the conclusion, we analyze the main difficulties, weaknesses, and strengths of the project.
