Abstract
The article considers the peculiarities of the BRI project development and changes in its implementation policy taking into account the COVID-19 pandemic and the corresponding quarantine restrictions. The role of logistics infrastructure and indicators that provides the level of its development in certain countries in the process of BRI project implementation are highlighted. The analysis of predictions regarding the level of impact of infrastructural changes on the level of employment, welfare and economy of the territories where the BRI project will be implemented has been carried out. The key elements of bottlenecks in the railway connection between the EU and China are highlighted. The main factors that impair the efficiency of railway customs have been identified, which includes: technological and qualitative nature. It is suggested to use a combination of GCI (Global Connectedness Index), LPI (Logistics Performance Index) and AEMLI (Agility Emerging Markets Logistics Index) to establish the level of logistics infrastructure of a particular country. The allocation of key infrastructure performance indicators in general and logistics indicators in particular will take into account the potential risks of project implementation, reduce non-strategic investments, increase the investments rate of return on the project, provide a greater effect of scale.
