FORMATION METHODOLOGY OF MULTIMODAL PASSENGER TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM OF MOSCOW AGGLOMERATION, USING GRAPH THEORY

Abstract

The article considers the prerequisites for the creation of a unified transport infrastructure in Moscow and the Moscow region. High-speed passenger transport is proposed as the basis of such a system, its ad-vantages are considered. The environmental aspects that must be taken into account are defined. The role of transport hubs in transit-oriented development of the agglomeration territory is revealed. The analysis of documents of territorial planning, domestic and foreign scientific experience for determination of the most perspective direction of research on this problem is carried out. The necessary elements of graph theory for the study are considered. The methodology of the study is determined. Analogies are drawn between urban planning terminology and definitions used in graph theory. The boundaries of the studied territory are de-termined. The analysis of urban-planning documentation on the basis of which transport and planning char-acteristics of communities are revealed is carried out. Conclusions are drawn about the prospects for further research in this direction, as well as about the environmental aspect in the development of transport infrastructure in the Moscow region.
