Оцінювання перспектив впровадження швидкісного руху на залізничних магістралях України

Abstract

UA: Світовий досвід показує, що швидкісний рух є основою конкурентоспроможності залізничного транспорту. Відповідно до цього в статті розглядаються питання щодо перспектив впровадження швидкісного руху на магістралях України. На першому етапі виконується обґрунтування вибору виду транспорту на основі положень теорії нечітких множин, що дає можливість визначити найбільш конкурентоспроможний вид транспорту. На другому етапі комплексно оцінюються перспективи впровадження швидкісного руху, що визначило необхідність оцінювання економічної ефективності цього виду транспорту з урахуванням реконструкції існуючих залізничних магістралей України.

EN: The development of Ukraine's economy and industry largely depends on the use of its transit potential, which will contribute not only to the intensification of transit cargo flows, but also to an increase in passenger traffic. Even in the conditions of martial law, railway transport performs its functions of mass transportation of goods and passengers rather stably. However, the efficiency of railway transport is mainly provided by freight transport, which makes it much more difficult to compete with other modes of transport in the field of passenger transport. In today's realities on the market of transport services regarding the provision of passenger transportation, there is a decline in the position of railway transport But, despite this, railway transport remains strategically important, as it ensures the transportation of goods and the evacuation of the population in difficult times for our country. In addition, the railway network of Ukraine organically fits into the European network through Poland, Moldova, Hungary, Romania and Slovakia. All this determines that the process of European integration of Ukraine requires modern approaches from the railway, one of which is the introduction of high-speed traffic. As world experience shows, the introduction of high-speed traffic is necessary to increase the efficiency of railway passenger transportation and attract customers to railway services. In accordance with this, the article discusses the prospects for the introduction of high-speed traffic on the highways of Ukraine. At the first stage, the justification of the choice of the mode of transport is carried out based on the provisions of the theory of fuzzy sets, which makes it possible to determine the most competitive mode of transport. At the second stage, a comprehensive assessment of the prospects for the introduction of highspeed traffic is carried out, which determined the need to assess the economic efficiency of this type of transport, taking into account the reconstruction of the existing railway lines of Ukraine. Therefore, the introduction of high-speed traffic will allow to strengthen the competitive advantages of railway transport in the field of passenger transportation, and will also contribute to the European integration processes in Ukraine.
