Abstract

Purpose. The purpose of this study is to develop sustainable approaches to ensuring environmentally efficient management of the transport network of urbanized areas by assessing the environmental efficiency of the development of bicycle transport networks. Methodology. The development of approaches to ensure environmental safety in the operation and development of transport networks of urbanized areas is based on the methods of analytical analysis of the existing experience in the implementation of such activities and mathematical calculations of the effectiveness of the application of the proposed methods. Results. To assess the environmental efficiency of optimizing the functioning and development of the transport network of cities, criteria were proposed for replacing road transport work with bicycle transport, reducing pollutant emissions and fuel consumption, and reducing acoustic pollution. Based on the results of calculations on the environmental efficiency and the feasibility of developing the cycling transport network of cities on the example of model districts of Kharkov, it was found that the efficiency of developing the cycling transport network in the central region of the city of Kharkov is more than 20 times than in a residential area. It was found that the proposed eco-oriented approach cannot be applied in an unchanged form in practice due to the lack of physical ability to build a bicycle transport network in the central part of the city and the formed area development. Based on the results obtained, it has been established that it is advisable to take into account not only the parameters of road transport operation, but also the development of the city's road network itself in the context of sustainable development. Originality. In this study, for the first time, it was proposed to consider improving the efficiency of environmental safety management of city transport networks through the development of a bicycle transport network based on environmental criteria. Practical value. The approach proposed and tested in the study in the future can become the basis for the development of an environmentally sustainable urban transport system due to the optimal inclusion of the cycling transport network in it.
