Description :
This article examines the road network vulnerability assessment based on fragile factor interdependencies in spatial–functional perspectives in the Taipei metropolitan area. The results indicate that delay time on the shortest substitution, level of service on adjacent links, and inaccessibility to hospital emergency centers significantly affect vulnerability. Whereas certain socioeconomic resilience is performed in the short term, spatial–functional interdependency dilutes those effects in the long term. The framework developed facilitates decision makers in understanding interdependent vulnerabilities and adopting appropriate strategies to improve vulnerability.
