Highlights A three-phase MCA framework from the demand–supply-interconnected environment perspective is proposed to evaluate the CRRs interconnection performance. A novel public health-transport relations are designed to support decision making in the event of infectious diseases, not just for COVID-19. Different policy options are proposed based on limited resources. Taking Dongguan-Yantian-Hong Kong sea-rail line as an example, this study verifies the validity of the developed framework.

    Abstract The long COVID-19 has had devastating and continuous effects on cross-regional railways (CRRs), yet the relation between public health management and public transport efficiency is still not fully understood. To address this issue, this study incorporates the complex interconnected environment into demand–supply dynamics and develops a three-phase multi-criteria evaluation framework to establish the policy option library for promoting CRRs interconnection performance. This novel framework integrated the Best-Worst Method, Fuzzy Adversarial Interpretive Structure Modeling, and Depth First Search into a novel methodology under fuzzy linguistic terms. Besides, the framework was validated with the Dongguan-Yantian-Hong Kong sea-rail line case; structural hierarchy exploration was conducted as well. The findings show that it is the shocks from demand side (instead of shocks from supply side) that have the greatest impact on interconnection in the post-epidemic era. The optimal management path may lead to spillovers of production factors, requiring decision-makers to adjust input strategies with limited resources. This should be done according to the formation order of the demand–supply, demand-demand, and interconnected environment-interconnected environment components. This is the most significant insight of the proposed framework, which optimizes resource efficiency and provides extensive insights for decision-makers to further explore the reformation of public transportation development.
