The article is devoted to the establishment of information support to determine the patterns of changing the function of gravitation of employees of the urban-service enterprises. It has been established that the development of urban transport systems is impossible without the use of information technology to predict the parameters of the formation and absorption of passenger traffic. The design of urban transport systems cannot be achieved without assessing the impact of traffic improvement measures on changes in traffic and passenger flows. The main parameter by which it is possible to predict the choice of places of gravity by the inhabitants of cities is the function of gravitation between different areas of the city. The formalized functions of the gravitation of urban dwellers are not differentiated by the social composition of the population of cities. In addition, they use only travel time between areas of the city as an independent variable. The article proposes the formalization of the gravitation function of employees of the urban service enterprises using the parameters of the urban transport system, areas of departure and arrival, as well as the cost of movement. A special questionnaire has been developed to obtain the original information. A natural survey was carried out using it. As a result of the processing of survey data using correlation and regression analysis methods, the degree of influence of the studied factors on the value of the gravitation function of employees of urban service enterprises was revealed. Analysis of the correlation values obtained showed that the most significant impact on the value of the gravitation function of employees of urban services is the ratio of the cost of movement between districts and average wages in the city. The least impact is the distance from the area of residence to the place of application of work, the ratio of the cost of one square meter of housing in the area of residence and the average salary in the city, the ratio of the cost of one square meter of housing in the area of employment application and the average salary in the city. However, the compatible influence of all factors can change the level of influence of each factor and its combinations. In addition, it is advisable to take into account the technical and operational performance of urban passenger transport routes and individual transport routes.

Security Check

In order to ensure the safety of passengers using metro stations and staff working at them, some cities choose to set security checks at the entrances of metro stations. There is no doubt that security check can help keep dangerous objects out of a metro station. However, the security check can also slow down the entering speed of passenger flow and lead to congestions that may affect passengers’ travel plans. How security check will impact the passenger flow and how to reduce the impact are questions that need to be addressed. In this study, metro station models were constructed using the building structure and passenger flow data of a realistic metro station in Guangzhou, China. By using the AnyLogic simulation software, the traffic characteristics of passenger flow under the scenarios with and without a security check were compared and discussed. The congested areas in the station hall and possible causes were analyzed. In addition, possible improving measures such as adding security check machines and ticket vending machines were also modeled to test their effectiveness on reducing the congestion in the station. Results show that when security checks are set at each entrance of the station being studied, the flow rate of passengers entering the gate machine could be decreased by 49.4%~83.3%, which can cause serious congestion at the entrance during rush hours. By adding security check machines and ticket vending machines at the entrances with high passenger traffic demands, the congestion near these entrances could be greatly reduced.

The Impact

The author has emphasized that the quarantine and social distancing measures needed to reduce the spread of the pandemic have a particularly serious impact on small and medium-sized enterprises due to a sharp decline in demand for services, with the exception of food retail. Transport is no exception and also suffers significant losses due to reduced traffic. The economic activity and the level of GDP of Ukraine during the last years are analyzed. The policy measures implemented during the quarantine period, which were designed to provide targeted financial support to small and medium enterprises, are outlined. The current crisis requires comprehensive support measures, including not only support through the opening of credit lines and the provision of credit guarantees, but also support measures through fiscal and social policy measures. In addition, intensive support will be needed in the medium and long term, especially to help businesses recover quickly from the crisis by supporting digitalisation, more flexible regulation and improved access to finance. The strengths and weaknesses of railway transport are highlighted, its capabilities and advantages are analyzed, especially in comparison with other types of transport, as well as the threats of internal and external influences. The contribution of JSC Ukrzaliznytsia in overcoming the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 is analyzed. It is emphasized that the railway is a powerful taxpayer Measures to overcome the crisis in railway transport are proposed, including, in particular, the separation of freight and passenger traffic, refusal to transport privileged categories of citizens under the current scheme of financing these transport by local authorities, the introduction of public-private partnership on concession.

Positive Effect

Using information on 2,300 Air Services Agreements covering 184 countries, we investigate the impact of air services liberalization on passenger flows. We find that a certain level of liberalization is required to have a positive effect on passenger traffic. In particular, we estimate that the multilateralization of multiple designation provisions, Open Skies Agreements and European Economic Area-type agreements would increase passenger traffic worldwide by 0.5, 5, and 10 percent, respectively. The potential endogeneity problem is carefully dealt with using instrumental variables and propensity score matching. (JEL F13, L51, L93, L98, R41)
