Abstract

The previous study aims to create a model to prepare a risk-based route network by prioritization technique with Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). This research proposes a method to create an effective logistics network with HazMat-risk concern using Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). In the research, gasoline logistics was selected for detailed study. The results show that participants rank the risk of having a road accident as the top priority, followed by the time of day, risk of carriage unit explosion, the consequences of an incident, then travel time and travel cost (28.6%, 19.4%, 17.3%, 14.6%, 5.8% and 18.3% respectively). To examine this model, data for logistics of gasoline and diesel fuel in Rayong Province (Thailand) were used for the model application. From the calculation, it was possible to reduce the composite cost priority (including risk and travel cost) HazMat logistics by approximately 10.6% in total using this model.
