The transportation of hazardous material on congested motorways is an area of increasing concern for public safety and environmental awareness. This paper aims at developing a methodology with an original approach in making an attempt to encompass both professional experience and theoretical knowledge with application oriented studies from disparate areas related to the commercial transportation of HAZMAT on motorway, intimately linked with the "sustainable transportation" paradigm. The main objective is to assess quantitatively the acceptability of the Individual and Societal Risks connected with the transportation of HAZMATs. In addition, we propose a real time model of a Decision Support System for HAZMAT transportation on a sustainable oriented motorway environment. Finally, we offer an application of the proposed model. The case study involves a stretch of A4 motorway in the North-East of Italy.

Abstract
The transportation of hazardous material on congested motorways is an area of increasing concern for public safety and environmental awareness. This paper aims at developing a methodology with an original approach in making an attempt to encompass both professional experience and theoretical knowledge with application oriented studies from disparate areas related to the commercial transportation of HAZMAT on motorway, intimately linked with the "sustainable transportation" paradigm. The main objective is to assess quantitatively the acceptability of the Individual and Societal Risks connected with the transportation of HAZMATs. In addition, we propose a real time model of a Decision Support System for HAZMAT transportation on a sustainable oriented motorway environment. Finally, we offer an application of the proposed model. The case study involves a stretch of A4 motorway in the North-East of Italy.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
