Planning and Modeling of Urban Transport Infrastructure

Abstract

The relevant issue of urban transport infrastructure development is studied. The growth of social-and-economic processes, the rise in the standard of the population living, has led to the rapid increase in the number of passenger transport. The development of construction in cities, the consolidation of residential areas involves the improvement and development of transport and social infrastructure as well as the transport conditions. According to the domestic and foreign statistical data, the analysis of the state of transport infrastructure development is carried out and the structure of the forecast transport model is proposed. The impact of modern information technologies on improving the quality and safety of transport is also assessed. The developed forecast model for optimal development of transport infrastructure and the use of territories will allow to simplify the process of building a road network at the micro- and macro- levels; to display all the specifications of public and private transport in a single model; to solve operational and strategic tasks of transport planning for the preparation of projects for the organization and analysis of traffic flows at intersections and junctions. The practical significance is that the planning of transport flows of infrastructure will improve the efficiency and safety of urban transport through the use of modern communication technologies, computer systems and specialized software.
