| Abstract | This research aims to apply Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) at the strategic action. Plan and program of the mass transit system in Uttaradit province, Thailand. Some steps of SEA process were applied to such strategic action by focusing on the development and assessment of the appropriate alternatives together with the selected appropriate indicators. The alternatives for mass transit development plan were proposed as following; Alternative 1: No Development Plan (or No Action Plan), Alternative 2: Conventional Mass Transit System Development Plan (Conventional Plan), Alternative 3: Smart and Environmentally Friendly Mass Transit Development Plan (Smart plan). With the Pairwise Comparison and the Impact Matrix Analysis, the Smart Plan was assessed as the appropriate alternative when compared with the Conventional Plan and No Action Plan as for 49.36%, 32.17%, and 18.47 % respectively. The mass transit system under the Smart Plan were proposed as Road, Railway, and Road with Railway systems. On the same assessment procedure, the impact score of the Road with Railway, Railway and Road system were 36.64 %, 33.90% and 29.46% respectively. The appropriate alternative mass transit system was road and railway system. SEA was practical tool applied to the strategic level of the mass transit development. |
