This article is addressed the selection of appropriate public transportation mode in Khon Kaen town plan area for the North-South (N-S) route (Samran-Tha Phra). By applying the Multi-Attribute Decision Making (MADM) methods that is on integrations of Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), Fuzzy Scoring Method (FSM) and Simple Additive Weight (SAW) methods. The concept of Sustainable Development is also adapted to create a balance among the 3 main factors including (1) Economic development (2) Social responsibility and (3) Environmental protection. It was found that Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) and Light Rail Transit (LRT) are equally suitable for N-S route in the study area.
