The City

This article is devoted to the formation of theoretical foundations and methodological approaches of scientific coverage of economic and statistical problems of the functioning of urban passenger transport systems. The problematic is considered on the example of the city of Kharkiv. Public transport in Kharkiv is represented by almost the maximum number of types city trams, trolleybuses and metro, as well as private road carriers. The concept of consistency is based on the territorial principle and intermodality. The general indicator of the level of development of the territorial transport system is its balance. Unfortunately, the territorial transport systems of Ukraine are insufficient for the passage of existing traffic flows, and transport infrastructure facilities and rolling stock do not ensure the safe and comfortable movement of individual vehicles, public transport passengers, cyclists and pedestrians. Public transport does not provide all citizens with financially affordable and technically qualitative services and cannot be an alternative to individual cars. Traffic is not sufficiently regulated by existing traffic control means. Operated vehicles have a negative impact on the environment and create traffic jams. As follows from the study, this unsatisfactory state is due to the lack of independence and dependence of communal transport enterprises on subsidies from the city budget, unbalanced state policy in the field of tariff setting, insufficient rates of renewal of rolling stock and transport infrastructure, insufficient rates of introduction of non-cash payment for travel, imperfection of methods and ways to manage enterprises as a single intermodal system. Solving the described problems requires an integrated approach. First of all, this is the creation of a systemic management mechanism to create a balanced territorial transport system. This is what shows the relevance of the chosen topic and determined the choice of the direction of research in scientific and practical aspects. The research results will be used to improve the efficiency of the municipal transport.

Heavy Goods Vehicles

Managing mobility, both of people and goods, in cities is a thorny issue. The travel needs of urban populations are increasing and put pressure on transport infrastructure. The Moroccan cities are no exception and will struggle, in the short term, to respond to the challenges of the acceleration of the phenomenon of urbanization and the increase in demand for mobility. This will inevitably prevent them from turning into smart cities. The term smart certainly alludes to better use of technologies, but smart mobility is also defined as “a set of coordinated actions intended to improve the efficiency, effectiveness and environmental sustainability of cities” [1]. The term mobility highlights the preponderance of humans over infrastructure and vehicles. Faced with traffic congestion, the solutions currently adopted which consist of fitting out and widening the infrastructures, only encourage more trips and report the problem with more critical consequences. It is true that beyond a certain density of traffic, even Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) are not useful. The concept of dynamic lane management or Advanced Traffic Management (ATM) opens up new perspectives. Its objective is to manage and optimize road traffic in a variable manner, in space and in time. This article is a summary of the development of a road infrastructure dedicated to Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGV), the first of its kind in Morocco. It aims to avoid the discomfort caused by trucks in the urban road network of the city of Casablanca. This research work is an opportunity to reflect on the introduction of ITS and ATM to ensure optimal use of existing infrastructure before embarking on heavy and irreversible infrastructure projects.

Advancements of information and communication technologies (ICT) cause infrastructure owners to augment current infrastructures with such ICT. The creation of more efficient and effective end-user services provides economical benefits and increases customer satisfaction. Concurrently, ICT advancements allow governmental and industrial sectors to develop complete new infrastructures and infrastructure services, the so called Next Generation Infrastructures (NGI). NGI will offer new services to society, end-users and the supply-chain of organisations and linked, dependent infrastructural services. For over fifty years, the introduction of new ICT-based services and infrastructures has been tightly coupled with failures in ICT-security. This chapter on NGI discusses the root causes of these security failures. Based on historical experiences, this chapter predicts threats and cyber security failures alike for the envisioned NGI such as smart (energy) grids, smart road transport infrastructure, smart cities, and e-health. This prediction will become reality unless fundamental changes in the approach to security of ICT-based and ICT-controlled infrastructures are taken.

The article deals with the main factors influencing the formation and development of the multimodal transport system of Ukraine in modern conditions. The object of the research is the process of formation of the domestic multimodal transport system. The purpose of the work is to determine the necessary measures for the formation of the multimodal transport system of Ukraine. In Ukraine, multimodal transportation is at the initial stage of development. Among the main factors hindering the formation and development of multimodal transport systems in Ukraine, is the imperfection of regulatory legal regulation of multimodal transport issues; absence of own environmentally friendly rolling stock of different types of transport, especially on road transport, which carries out transportation on long distances; imbalance between levels of capacity of objects of multimodal transport infrastructure and volumes of cargo flows; high risks of multimodal carriers at significant distances with two or more modes of transport; political situation in Ukraine; information provision of all parts of the multimodal logistics chain, etc. To solve these problems, measures have been proposed that will allow the formation and development of the multimodal transport system of Ukraine. The results of the work can be applied for the formation of a national multimodal transport system. Foreseeable assumptions about the development of the research object - the study of the components of the multimodal transport system.

Abstract. Road transport is an important infrastructure system that has a vital role in economic progress, sustainable development, and urban prosperity of societies. Thus, geospatial fundamentals of transport systems need to be adequately considered by the organizations that manage such infrastructures. Furthermore, the adoption of methodologies for monitoring, control and optimisation of transportation networks, from a geographical perspective is crucial to deploy or utilize resources efficiently and cost-effectively. This paper aims to describe the implementation of a complete Geographical Information (GI) based system as developed for the needs of the Cyprus road transport infrastructure. The paper focuses on the system architecture and the presentation of the desktop and mobile application interfaces and utilities. The GI-based system provides a good example of how different tools and open-source components can be integrated to provide a complete solution for collecting, storing, managing, analysing and disseminating geographical information data related to road network infrastructure. The use of the platform within the organization has resulted in a noticeable increase in productivity and accountability. The errors in data collection, analysis and storage were minimized and thus the quality of available data been significantly improved. This is a step towards the achievement of the goals of the European Digital Strategy by using Geographical Information System technologies to take reliable and accurate decisions related to road network monitoring, maintenance and management.

Transport Telematics

Transport telematics systems integrate information technology with telecommunications for the purposes of transport systems. This helps to improve the safety of vehicles and facilities involved in transport tasks. At the same time, the efficiency of using transport infrastructure and means of transport increases. The development and use of specialised IT applications that use data from transport telematics systems helped to create Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS). Currently, in Poland (in Europe and in the world), more and more advanced services offered by Intelligent Transport Systems are being developed and implemented. It is particularly relevant in road transport, especially because Poland’s road safety is insufficient compared to other European countries. The article presents the authors’ proposed indicators and criteria that can be used for assessing ITS services in the context of road safety. The authors conducted analyses to study the application of AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process), if ITS services were to be used to improve road safety. Then, it will be possible to choose one solution from all the assessed ones.
