摘要

目的澳大利亚的高速公路在连接偏远社区、转移货运和加强国家经济方面发挥着重要作用。为了满足今世后代日益增长的需求,提供一个社会可持续的道路基础设施,创造世代利益至关重要。然而,现有文献表明,缺乏综合指标来评估高速公路项目的社会可持续性表现。因此,本文旨在确定一组关键的系统特定指标,以评估澳大利亚高速公路的生命周期社会足迹。设计/方法/方法本研究对参与澳大利亚各地高速公路项目的积极参与的利益相关者进行了31次访谈问卷调查。使用模糊集理论和其他统计方法对收集的数据进行了分析。研究结果该研究确定了42个关键指标,用于评估澳大利亚高速公路整个生命周期的社会可持续性表现。例如,利益相关者的参与、道路事故伤亡率的降低、项目劳动力的公平薪酬以及所需服务的可及性的提高。实际含义从行业专家那里提取的针对具体情况的意见和确定的一套全面的关键指标将确保在未来澳大利亚高速公路的整个生命周期中考虑社会可持续性的所有重要方面,帮助决策者提高项目的社会可持续性绩效。独创性/价值与行业专家给出的评级相关的语言解释为澳大利亚高速公路的生命周期社会可持续性评估提供了更深入的见解。

Critical indicators for assessing the life cycle social footprint of Australian freeways
Purpose Freeways in Australia play a significant role in connecting distant communities, shifting freight and strengthening the country’s economy. To meet the growing needs of present and future generations, delivering a socially sustainable road infrastructure that creates generational benefits is essential. However, the existing literature reveals the lack of comprehensive indicators to assess the social sustainability performance of freeway projects. Therefore, this paper aims to identify a critical set of system-specific indicators to evaluate the life cycle social footprint of Australian freeways. Design/methodology/approach This study conducted 31 interview questionnaire surveys with actively engaged stakeholders involved in various freeway projects around Australia. The data collected was analysed using fuzzy set theory and other statistical approaches. Findings The study identified 42 critical indicators for assessing the social sustainability performance throughout the life cycle of freeways in the Australian context. For example, stakeholder involvement, reduction of casualty rate due to road accidents, fair remuneration to project workforce and improved accessibility to required services. Practical implications The context-specific opinions extracted from the industry experts and the comprehensive set of critical indicators identified would ensure that all the vital aspects of social sustainability are considered throughout the life cycle of Australian freeways in the future, assisting the decision-makers in enhancing the project’s social sustainability performance. Originality/value The linguistic explanations associated with the ratings given by the industry experts provide greater insight into the context of the life cycle social sustainability assessment of Australian freeways exclusively.
