Development Scenarios

The paper describes the assessment of 3 Vilnius city development scenarios according to transport system parameters multi‐criteria analysis and performing transport system modelling for 2015 and 2025 years. Vilnius city development scenarios such as concentrated development, extensive development and decentralized concentrated development have been evaluated from a transport viewpoint. Vilnius city development scenarios have been evaluated by using SAW (Simple Additive Weighting) multi‐criteria method. According to this method development scenarios ranking calculations have been performed using transport system indicators. Urban transport system analysis model was developed for Vilnius conditions, which estimates the fuel consumption, average travel distance and driven time by car in morning peak hours depending on urban areas development scenario and socio‐economic data. This model should be used when calculating new projects of the transport infrastructure (by‐passes, new bridges) and when evaluating the economic efficiency of traffic organization projects.

The Impact

Object of study - the impact of the transport system on economic security. Applied research and calculations are performed on the example of the Lipetsk region (Russia). The study used methods of system analysis, performance evaluation, statistical method, calculation of Engel and Uspensky coefficients, etc. Analysis of data on the provision of transport infrastructure in the regions of Russia and other countries showed that insufficient development of transport is a “weak spot” in Russian regions. To solve it, the following measures were proposed: development of public urban transport, modernization of the integrated transport system of urban agglomerations, introduction of a strategic approach to managing transport development, construction of toll roads and highways, more active use of electronic control systems for urban transport systems. To assess the effectiveness of the development strategy of urban transport systems, the authors suggested using a number of criteria. This is a criterion of fiscal efficiency; environmental performance criterion; criterion of strategic coherence. Their use allows optimizing the development of transport in Russian cities. As a result, the economic security of their development will be reliably ensured.

Car Travel

Autonomous car travel planning is increasingly gaining attention from scientists and professionals, who are addressing the integration of autonomous cars into the general urban transportation system. Autonomous car travel planning depends on the transport system infrastructure, the dynamic data, and their quality. The efficient development of travel depends on the development level of the Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) and the Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (C-ITS). Today, most cities around the world are competing with each other to become the smartest cities possible, using and integrating the most advanced ITS and C-ITS that are available. It is clear that ITS and C-ITS are occupying an increasing share of urban transport infrastructure, so the complex challenges of ITS and C-ITS development will inevitably need to be addressed, in the near future, by integrating them into the overall urban transport system. With this in mind, the authors proposed three autonomous car travel development concepts that should become a conceptual tool in the development of ITS and C-ITS.

Transport issues in urban centers are rising at an exponential rate and are characterized by congestion, high motorized vehicles growth, vehicular and noise pollution, road accidents and parking space constraints. Present public transport and Non-Motorized Transport (NMT) modes are inefficient and do not cater to the needs of 31.23% of urbanized population in India, which is poised to grow up to 71% by 2031 (MoUD, 2015). Lack of accessibility in public transport and NMT has compelled commuters to opt for private transport modes such as twowheelers and cars, in order to have access to work, education and other leisure activities. The paper aims to assess the finances allocated to urban transport system in the city of Pune under the jurisdiction of Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC). The authors intend to critically review the city budget and its contribution to sustainable modes of urban transport. The key research questions are: - a) whether the budget distributes enough revenue to enhance the efficiency and accessibility of public transport modes and NMT as guided in the National Urban Transport Policy (NUTP) of 2006? b) does the local government continue to invest in temporary urban transport solutions catering to the needs of private modes of transportation? The results further show that PMC’s budget allocation is not favoring sustainable modes of transport as much as it is catering to other urban transport infrastructure and utilities. The paper concludes with recommendation on ways of innovative financing methods to make public transport sustainable and discusses various case studies of best practices followed globally pertaining to sustainable urban transport system.

The research is based on secondary budget data of the year 2016-17 and the data so collected, has been analyzed on various financial parameters. The results show that PMC’s budget allocation is not favoring sustainable modes of transport as much as it is catering to other urban transport infrastructure and utilities. The study thereby suggests sufficient allocation of the city’s budget towards the creation of sustainable transportation. Lastly, the paper concludes with recommendation on ways of innovative financing methods to make public transport, sustainable and discusses various case studies of best practices followed globally pertaining to sustainable urban transport system.

Introduction. The experience of developing the economies of the developed countries of the world suggests that it is directly related to the evolution of transport and infrastructure. In most of countries, intelligent transport systems (ITS) are under investigation as one of the scientific directions of the symbiosis of the economy - technology – telematics, and considered as the most effective tool for solving transport problems. The efforts of international organizations, state representatives in the field of transport, scientists, entrepreneurs and the public are aimed at such key areas as: significant increase in both the safety of transport on all modes of transport and capacity grows of the transport system of the country. Purpose. The goal of the article is to develop a single integrated approach to the definition of the term ITS and to provide a general classification system with details on the management objects. Methods. To achieve the goal methods have been used based on the systems approach, management theory and decision-making theory. The system analysis has been used to determine the scientific task. Results. In order to implement the tasks of transport management in terms of ITS, the system analysis of the field of research has been carried out in the article, including the systematization of the definition and the construction of a general classification system with details on the management objects. The analysis of the subject area of ITS usage has allowed establishing the main classes of the analyzed objects, to classify the tasks of monitoring characteristics, organization of management of transport flows and transportation process, information support for participants, organization of transport infrastructure management. Research of the literature sources allowed to form an integrated approach to the ITS classification system, which includes both systems introduced in the objects of transport infrastructure and in the management of transport flows. In the addition to the above, the main thing in the infrastructure objects is the terminal monitoring and management system, as well as the security management system. Conclusion. ITS is a new type of transport management systems that are gradually replaced by automated control systems. They are focused on modeling various cases and forecasting of dangerous situations and be used for decision-making tool in the condition of great complexity and large amounts of data. ITC can be considered as an important component of the modern integrated approach to improving the efficiency of the functioning of the country's transport system by expanding their information infrastructure: automated data collection on state of the system in real time, modeling direct and indirect operational impact on the formation and change of transport flows.

The complex analysis of traffic system safety in Nigeria based on qualitative and simulation modeling was performed. These models allow us to perform a preliminary assessment of measures aimed at safety improvement of the traffic system situation in Nigeria, and to make projections to improve the parameters of the transport system. In this paper, the results of the system analysis of the transport network safety in Nigeria based on qualitative and simulation modeling are presented. The qualitative model of transport network safety and the model of system dynamics is developed, the safety measures based on simulation are suggested. The obtained results could be used for support of decision making in the field of transport network management in Nigeria. The experiments were conducted on qualitative models, they showed the effect on the transport system parameters of such measures: increasing fines for violations of the road regulations and increasing of the funding of the road repairing and construction. The support organization in decision-making in the management of the urban transport system development is very important. This problem can be solved with the use of different approaches. The use of qualitative and dynamic-system modeling for complex analysis of the transport system and evaluation of measures effectiveness aimed at improving its safety is proposed in this paper.
