The article deals with the peculiarities of domestic and foreign experience hubs. The object of study - the process of multimodal transport hubs in traffic. The purpose of the work - in analyzing the domestic and foreign experience of transport nodes to identify ways to improve multimodal transport nodes. The research method is analytical. The most important structural unit of multimodal transport systems are multimodal transport nodes. By the term multimodal transport hub (MTH) understand the geographical point of docking and interaction of several types of transport, through which multimodal transportation is carried out. Such a hub may combine the railway stations connecting their railways, sea and river ports, airports, stations, highways, terminal and intermediate objects of main pipelines, and municipal transport networks. The infrastructure of the MTH includes warehouses and cargo terminals with traffic control and distribution centers, customs clearance facilities, transport insurance, organizations representing freight forwarding and banking services. In the analysis of domestic and foreign experience of transport hub, it was discovered that transport nodes are the bridgeheads of organizational-technical and technological interaction of different types of transport, implementation of multimodal transportations on logistic principles. The capacity of transport hubs in Ukraine is at a critical point. In modern conditions, the power of transport hubs is not sufficient for the volume of freight traffic, including and transit grew. In order to eliminate "bottlenecks" in transport hubs of Ukraine, it is necessary to improve the technical and operational capabilities of the infrastructure objects, their technical re-equipment and modernization. The results of the work can be applied to develop measures for the improvement of multimodal transport hubs. Foreseeable assumptions about the development of the research object - the search for ways to improve multimodal transport hubs.

Purpose This paper aims to identify the factors that experts consider important for the effective operation of multimodal transport using the Trans-Siberian Railway (TSR) in the Russian Far East and to also establish operational strategies that enable Korean logistics companies to use TSR efficiently for multimodal transportation. Design/methodology/approach A total of 65 questionnaires were distributed to predominantly Korean logistics companies/shippers with experience in TSR and 19 replies were received. The majority of the respondents are senior executives with at least 10 years of work experience. To identify the factors and present strategies, this study applied the strengths, weaknesses, threats and opportunities -fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) method, which is based on complex multiple-criteria decision-making (MCDM) that facilitates decision-makers in considering an operational strategy by calculating the importance of input factors. Findings Results from the FAHP indicate that the Strengths is the main factor affecting TSR multimodal transport decisions, followed by the Threats, Opportunities and Weakness factors. In terms of rank, reduction of transportation distance and time are determined as the most crucial factor from the perspective of Korean logistics companies, followed by the northern logistics development plan, the Russian Government's willingness to the development plan, political instability and possible linkages with the Korean ports. Originality/value Through a hybrid MCDM analysis of Korean logistics companies, three operational strategies were proposed: foreign direct and small investments in the Russian Far East, Korean logistics companies implementing a cold-chain logistics service in the fishery industry and a government-led “Block Train Integration System” to secure the minimum threshold volume of cargo for small and medium-sized companies.

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.

Objective: To study the conceptual approach to the problem of integrated security, involving cooperation of transport logistical system participants of multimodal transportation (TLS SP), including aerial cargo delivery system, on the principles of the unity of information environment and intellectualization of transport systems management using the global positioning system GLONASS/GPS. Methods: The methods of TLS SP systematization and structural decomposition were applied, as well as the method of TLS SP matrix simulation, considering collaboration of the means of production in case certain operations are performed by each traffic participant on all route stages from a manufacturer to a receiver. Results: Horizontal decomposition of TLS SP was performed on the principle of the unity of the main transport process, taking into account integrated security requirements at each stage of goods traffic from a manufacturer to a receiver: making up, loading, transportation on different types of transport, cargo transfer and unloading at a receiving point. The main areas of transport intellectualization in Russia and abroad were studied. The new requirements for intellectualization of airport systems, air traffic control systems and aviation services were considered, presenting a unified aviation system and determining further directions of systems study, taking into account the perturbing factors at all stages and activities of the system in question. The suggestions on TLS SP intellectualization areas at all stages of planning and transportation fulfillment from a manufacturer to a receiver were given, making it possible to provide further development of supply chain management concept and formation of 5PL-provider transportation services at the market. Practical importance: The suggestions on the formation of TLS SP integrated security system were developed, using the latest data management technologies – intellectual transport systems, in order to improve the security and efficiency of transport processes, to minimize the delays and to improve working conditions.

Multimodal Transport

Background: In a world where every municipality is pursuing the goals of more sustainable mobility, bicycles play a fundamental role in getting rid of private cars and travelling by an eco-friendly mode of transport. Additionally, private and shared bikes can be used as a feeder transit system, solving the problem of the first- and last-mile trips. Thanks to GIS (Geographic Information System) software, it is possible to evaluate the effectiveness of such a sustainable means of transport in future users’ modal choice. Methods: Running an accessibility analysis of cycling and rail transport services, the potential mobility demand attracted by these services and the possible multimodality between bicycle and rail transport systems can be assessed. Moreover, thanks to a modal choice model calibrated for high school students, it could be verified if students will be really motivated to adopt this solution for their home-to-school trips. Results: The GIS-based analysis showed that almost half of the active population in the study area might potentially abandon the use of their private car in favour of a bike and its combination with public transport systems; furthermore, the percentage of the students of one high school of Palermo, the Einstein High School, sharply increases from 1.5% up to 10.1%, thanks also to the combination with the rail transport service. Conclusions: The GIS-based methodology shows that multimodal transport can be an effective way to pursue a more sustainable mobility in cities and efficiently connect suburbs with low-frequent public transport services to the main public transport nodes.

Advanced automatic traffic control systems and various other ITS (Intelligent Transport Systems) applications and services rely on real-time information from the traffic system. This paper presents the overview and general functions of different information sources which provide real-time information that are used or could be used in ITS. The objective is to formally define the quality of information sources suitable for ITS based on formal models of the traffic system and information sources. The definition of quality encompasses these essential factors: traffic system information that exists or may be requested, user requirements and attributes that describe the information sources. This provides the framework and guidelines for the evaluation of information sources that accounts for relevant factors that influence their selection for specific ITS applications.

Applications of information technology are expanding rapidly across all modes of transport, under the general heading of intelligent transport systems (ITS). For bus-based public transport, a cluster of applications has been developed that can help improve the efficiency and performance of buses on the street, thus helping to provide a real transport alternative to the private car. An initial summary of a range of such ITS examples in Europe is provided, including automatic vehicle location (AVL), bus priority in traffic control systems, automatic ticketing systems, automatic camera enforcement systems, and variable message signs. Then the focus shifts to one area where activity is most pronounced—the implementation of AVL systems and their integration with urban traffic control (UTC) systems. A review of typical AVL/UTC systems operational in Europe is then presented through the identification of some eight alternative architectures and associated system characteristics, such as the technologies used and the location of bus priority “intelligence.” This is followed by a summary of examples from cities in Europe that have implemented these architectures, together with typical results illustrating the effectiveness of these systems. The diversity of architectures, technologies, and systems is recognized as beneficial in providing customer choice, but can generate a significant difficulty for decision makers in local authorities wishing to invest in public transport ITS technologies. A concluding discussion lists some of the key issues involved in this investment process.

This chapter takes the mobility discussion in a totally different direction—away from trains, from vanhu (humans) and means and ways as the central actors, to mhesvi subverting the transport systems that vanhu contrived. This is to further the thesis of this book—the idea of mhesvi as mobile workshop, this time as a passenger taking a ride on pedestrians, disabling ox wagon transport, riding on automobiles and on bicycles, and forcing vanhu to institute mechanisms and infrastructures of traffic control. On the surface, traffic might be interpreted as automobiles, bicycles, and foot movements—yet such movement is, at any other time, innocuous. What rendered it worth controlling was mhesvi, the real “traffic” that had to be controlled because it carried hutachiwana.
