This paper considers traffic environment quality assessment methods in the context of their application as part of the Anshan City's Comprehensive Transportation Planning Project. In particular, it involves applying multistage fuzzy comprehensive assessment and fuzzy clustering analysis. The study proceeds by initially setting up an assessment system and then moves on to establishing and determining assessment criteria, formulae for the subordination function, allocating weights and modeling and program design. Finally, the theoretical framework is explored in a case study context.
