Abstract
This paper examines major railroad projects' emergency response decision-making process, focusing on timeliness, cost-effectiveness, and public involvement. It explores the optimal collaborative strategies of local governments, enterprises, and the public during the construction phase. A novel tripartite decision-making framework is proposed, based on an asymmetric evolutionary game model and dynamic simulation methods. The results show a stable equilibrium in emergency response strategies emerges when public engagement is prioritized. Government subsidy policies are found to significantly influence the strategic choices of all agents, emphasizing the critical role of coordinated collaboration. The study highlights the importance of public participation and multi-agent cooperation in addressing complex emergency challenges. These findings provide valuable guidance for improving localized emergency response strategies, enhancing collaborative decision-making, optimizing resource allocation, increasing response efficiency, and supporting policy formulation in major railroad projects.
