description | A framework for risk assessment due to inland waterway transportation of dangerous goods is designed based on all possible event types that may be caused by the inland transportation of dangerous goods. The objective of this study is to design a framework for calculating the risks associated with changes in the transportation of dangerous goods along inland waterways. The framework is based on the traditional definition of risk and is designed for sensitive riverside environmental conditions in inland waterways. From the perspective of transportation management, this paper introduced the concept of transportability of dangerous goods and constructed a transportability assessment framework, which consists of a multi-index evaluation system and a single metric model. The result of the assessment is as an auxiliary basis to determine the transportation permit and control intensity of dangerous goods in an inland waterway specific voyage. The methodology is illustrated using a case study of transporting fireworks in the Yangtze River. |
