Transport Corridors As A Factor Of Socio-Economic Development Of Cross-Border Regions

Abstract

Social and economic development of the territory is largely determined by the conditions of infrastructure formation. Transport infrastructure allows creating conditions for attracting the population and investment, and thus contributing to the development of the region's territory. The main elements of transport infrastructure include international transport corridors. In modern conditions, transport corridors can significantly accelerate the social and economic development of the region by intensifying economic cooperation between participants in economic relations. Transport corridors create the material basis for production and economic ties between individual regions and become the main factor organizing the international economic space. In the modern world of technology, transport corridors are becoming part of the information space. Information support for the functioning of transport corridors makes it possible to speed up and reduce the cost of moving cargo and passengers. Information systems will create qualitatively new conditions for the social, economic and technological development of regions, attracting investment in the implementation of innovative projects in transport. The development of intelligent transport systems within transport corridors will create conditions for ensuring the standardized and unified use of various technologies for identification, navigation and positioning, video surveillance of vehicles and cargo. Creating conditions for the formation and development of an intelligent transport system within the existing transport corridors will optimize the loading of transport infrastructure and maximize the use of its capacity, thereby creating conditions for the intensification of social and economic development of regions.
