Purpose. To develop the methodology for choosing the strategies of freight forwarding companies in the situation of interaction with freight owners as customers of forwarding services. Methodology. The game-theoretical approach is used to formalize the conflict situation between a freight forwarding company and a cargo owner. A set of services proposed by forwarders is used as the base in order to represent possible strategies of a forwarder as the vector of probabilities that the respective services are provided for a client. The strategies of the cargo owner are represented as a binary variable that shows whether the client uses the provided services or not. The payoff function for a forwarder is defined as the companys profit and the clients payoff function as fee paid for forwarding services. To determine the influence of the demand parameters on the forwarders optimal strategies, the demand for transport services is represented as a flow of requests characterized by two numeric parameters delivery distance and consignment weight. Findings. The conducted experimental studies have shown that as a result of the use of the proposed methodology, the optimal strategy of a forwarding company can always be determined from the payoff matrix. The performed simulation experiment allowed us to state that in most cases the forwarders optimal strategy is mixed (the technological and commercial services should be provided with the given probability while servicing the flow of requests from freight owners). Originality. The studies on the influence of the request flow parameters on the probabilities of choosing the elementary strategies are carried in the paper for the first time. Practical value. The proposed methodology can be used as the basic tool for supporting decisions of freight forwarders while servicing the cargo owners at the market of road freight transportation.

This study focuses on a wide range of issues related to the effects of integration process on the development of economic relations, in particular, in the road transport services market. Special emphasis is put on the critical role of integration in contributing to building circular technological supply chains, ensuring sales coordination and management, reducing unit costs and increasing labor productivity. It is argued that the outcome of integration translates into a cohesive economic mechanism which in addition to its integrated elements is characterized by the presence of a core coordination element. The article offers a definition to a public-private partnership phenomenon, identifies its advantages and disadvantages, explores the mechanisms of public-private partnership implementation as well as suggests a toolkit to optimize the partnership functioning for integrated structures. This is a pioneering study that provides a rationale for the need to use several public-private partnership patterns simultaneously together with developing a mechanism for carrying out public-private partnership which is proposed to be consolidated into the mechanism of integrated partnership viewed as the most preferable one to be implemented in the market of road transport services. It has been verified that the integrated partnership pattern provides an opportunity to develop competitive advantages of all its participants. The research findings have enabled to make the following generalizations: the existing partnerships differ in types of arrangements and institutional support; prior to making a decision to launch a specific integrated partnership project, the mechanism of its implementation should be envisaged; to enhance the efficiency of the integrated partnership project implementation, building relevant infrastructure facilities is paramount; the prospects for further integrated partnership project operation assume the utilization of a network mechanism of public-private partnership which best meets the needs and the specifics of the road transport services market.

The demands for transport are presently at quite high level. There are few transport branches which are used now, but in fact the road transport is the one used most. Transport actions are ought to deliver goods from point A to point B, and thus they influence the goals of logistics referred as 5R. Providing the right resource, in right place, on the right time, in right cost and in right quality, depend mostly on transport services. Using of the autonomous technology in transport allow to achieve better results in the field of logistics services. The purpose of this article was to present the benefits of autonomous transport and its influence on the logistics. Theoretical considerations were summarized with conclusions, which may become during the deliberation about the usage of autonomous transport vehicles.

Due to its geographical situation, the port of Ploče has become a junction of land and sea routes within the Transport Corridor Vc, as a part of the Mediterranean Transport Corridor, passing through Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia and Hungary. The paper deals with the analysis of the connecting roads leading from the port of Ploče as well as with the evaluation of the respective road traffic volume. Although the congestion on certain road sections is related to the tourist transit traffic, the road traffic volume at the Transport Corridor Vc within Bosnia and Herzegovina indicates the need for the construction of a motorway to stretch out the Corridor. The planned modernisation will fundamentally improve the main road infrastructure on the Transport Corridor Vc that will facilitate the transport of goods and enable shorter travel time from the port of Ploče to the hinterland. Considering that the major portion of the freight transport from the port of Ploče uses road transport services, the envisaged modernisation will significantly increase competitiveness of the port, mostly due to the intermodal transport mode.

Introduction. The active use of the institution of public-private partnership (PPP) allows us to distinguish PPP from the totality of financial and economic relations between the state and the private sector based on the principles of equality and freedom of PPP participants, stability of the agreement and its flexibility, responsibility of the parties, competitiveness, non-interference, incentive and guarantees, retribution.The research hypothesis. The algorithm for selecting and assessing the effectiveness of projects in the road transport market to select the most effective form of financing with the participation of the state and the private sector will create conditions for attracting private investment in the development of transport infrastructure on the basis of public-private partnership.The purpose of this article is to improve the system of public-private partnership in the market of road transport services.The methodology of the study: expert, statistical, comparative, factor and scenario analysis; empirical data analysis using grouping, generalization methods.Results. An algorithm for selection and evaluation of the efficiency of projects in the sphere of the road service market to select the most effective form of financing with the participation of the state and the private sector has been proposed and tested, in particular: four alternative options for project financing to select the optimal one (state order, life cycle contract (LCС) without extra-budgetary financing, LCС with extra-budgetary financing, concession agreement); clarification of the methodology for evaluation of commercial, socio-economic and budgetary indicators of the road service market.Conclusions. Theoretical provisions developing the methodological basis of public-private partnership were formulated, including: the concept of public-private partnership was defined and its main principles were highlighted; classification of PPP forms and models was proposed taking into account the existing world and national practice; methodological tools for evaluation of PPP projects efficiency were improved.

Transport processes research are closely related to the economic and operational performance of road transport. During planning road transportation, the most important factor is the transport services cost. Known fact that most of the transportation costs are car fuel. The share of car fuel in the transport tariff cost can be 25-50% (depending on the working conditions of vehicles). Therefore, research that is associated with improving the vehicles efficiency by reducing variable costs is appropriate and relevant. The article presents the results of research on the planning of transport processes in the road transport performance in international road transport for the return flight and calculating methods the demand for the amount of fuel purchased in different countries with different prices. The author presents the results of theoretical and experimental research the adequacy of the mathematical model (methodology). The specified mathematical model consists in substantiation of a technique of calculation of quantity of car fuel, definition of the variable factors influencing volumes of fuel expenses, calculation of correction factors (total) received on the basis of technical and operational indicators of vehicles and the influencing factors connected with features of road transport work. . The second part of the research contains the results of the development of an algorithm development to calculate the total cost of automotive fuel, which was purchased at different prices in several countries. Thus, the main purpose of research is the task of substantiating the algorithm (mathematical model – methodology) for determining fuel costs by the criterion of the highest use of fuel in countries at the lowest prices.

Annotation. The mass serial nature of the road transport services performed and their uniformity led to the use of the process-based method of accounting and calculating the cost of road transport. This method has characteristic features, for example, cost accounting is carried out for each structural subdivision of a motor transport enterprise irrespective of the type of transportation performed. After the end of the reporting month, actual expenses are written off to the entire volume of performed transportation and the average cost of a unit of motor transport products is determined. Such an accounting system allows you to get information about the level of production costs only at the beginning of the month following the reporting month, which completely excludes the possibility of enterprise management to quickly respond to various overplanned and unreasonable costs during the reporting period. The article discusses the features of the technological process of production and sale of motor transport services and substantiates the possibility of practical use in motor transport enterprises of the normative method of accounting and calculation of road transport. The methods of determining the cost standards for all articles of the calculation of transport services, daily operational accounting for each vehicle of the standard cost of transportation and the value of the estimated profit received for a shift are presented. A practical example is given of using the normative method of accounting and calculating the cost of road transport on the basis of a KamAZ KVR P10k truck.

Transformation of road transport sector through replacing of internal combustion vehicles with zero-emission technologies is among key challenges to achievement of climate neutrality by 2050. In a constantly developing economy, the demand for transport services increases to ensure continuity in the supply chain and passenger mobility. Deployment of electric technologies in the road transport sector involves both businesses and households, its pace depends on the technological development of zero-emission vehicles, presence of necessary infrastructure and regulations on emission standards for new vehicles entering the market. Thus, this study attempts to estimate how long combustion vehicles will be in use and what the state of the fleet will be in 2050. For obtainment of results the TR3E partial equilibrium model was used. The study simulates the future fleet structure in passenger and freight transport. The results obtained for Poland for the climate neutrality (NEU) scenario show that in 2050 the share of vehicles using fossil fuels will be ca. 30% in both road passenger and freight transport. The consequence of shifts in the structure of the fleet is the reduction of CO2 emissions ca. 80% by 2050 and increase of the transport demand for electricity and hydrogen.
