Abstract
Logistics processes are becoming more widespread in the Russian economy. Transport logistics is an integral part of logistics. Its functions are to select the optimal routes for the movement of economic goods in the interests of all participants in these processes. The purpose of this work is to substantiate the methods of solving the main problems of transport logistics in Russian conditions. The study uses a systematic approach. Based on it, algorithms for solving transport logistics problems in the Russian economy are refined, the choice of transport mode, carrier and other logistics partners is ensured, rational delivery routes are determined, the technological unity of transport and warehouse processes is established, and the optimization of transport process parameters is achieved. The emerging flow processes must be interconnected through the integration of transport, production, supply, sales, consumption, service, financing and information. In the associated flow processes, the economic interests of all participants in the transport market (the sender, who forms the material flows, the recipient and the carrier) will be rationally coordinated with the economic interests of other participants in the logistics process. This will help overcome technical, technological, informational, economic, financial, international, environmental, and labor problems. In this case, transaction costs are reduced by all participants in logistics chains, the risks of doing business are reduced, and a synergistic effect is achieved.

Product is not fully ready if it is not delivered to the consumer who will use it
It is necessary to study the interaction of participants in the Russian transport market in solving these tasks, which allows overcoming technical, technological, informational, economic, financial, international, environmental, and labor problems, ensuring that transaction costs are reduced by all participants in logistics chains, reducing the risks of doing business, and obtaining a synergistic effect
The following definition of transport logistics best reflects the application of an integrative approach: “Transport logistics is a crucial part in the supply chain that in its essence organizes, manages, optimizes and performs physical distribution of goods and information through the whole upstream and downstream chain in an efficient and effective manner
Summary
Product is not fully ready if it is not delivered to the consumer who will use it. There are two types of gaps between producers and consumers: in space and in time. The concept of transport logistics originated in the second half of the twentieth century. This term was applied in 1977 by Mundy et al [9], in 1978 by Andrews et al [2]. The term "transport logistics" is widely used in the twenty-first century [5, 8, 9, 15]. Some authors believe that definitions of transport logistics are not always accurate [3]
