Abstract: This article proposes a modified ranking technique for generalized interval type-2 trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. For demonstrating uncertainty and managing imprecision in decision-making information, interval type-2 fuzzy sets are beneficial. The proposed ranking methodology resolves the difficulty of multi-criteria group decision-making on sustainable urban conveyance. Additionally, the proposed ranking approach considers all crucial aspects of transportation sustainability, including the effectiveness of durable transportation systems from economic, social, and ecological perspectives in multi-criteria group decision-making scenarios. The new ranking methodology yields superior outcomes for choosing sustainable urban transportation options. In the numerical part, studies compared the proposed ranking approach to other methods currently used for various MCDM techniques.
