Abstract

At present, the formation and development of the transport and logistics system is recognized as a promising area of the regional economy. This is due to the intensive development of transport logistics and the creation of a single European transport space in the framework of the transport policy of the European Union TEN-T. The article provides a predictive assessment of the indicators characterizing the development of the regional transport and logistics system of the Prydniprovsky economic region using economic and mathematical tools, and on this basis the trends in its functioning are identified. It should be noted that forecast estimates should be considered forecasts – a warning. That is, while maintaining an insignificant level of labor productivity and its decline, low capital productivity of capital investments for the coming years, the volume of transport activity (rail and road) of the Prydniprovsky economic region may significantly decrease. As a result of the study, a set of measures has been proposed, the implementation of which will transform the transport and logistics system of the region. These include: development of a strategy for the development of the transport and logistics cluster as a component of the regional transport and logistics system; development and implementation of a financial support mechanism for managing the development of the transport and logistics cluster; reconstruction of existing and creation of new facilities of appropriate logistics infrastructure; creation of optimal multimodal logistics chains, including through the expanded use of energy-efficient modes of transport; attracting private investment in the technical modernization of the port infrastructure of the Berdyansk seaport; intensification of innovation with the use of various forms of pre-ferences (loans, guarantees, tax benefits, subsidies) for the development of the seaport; transfer of port facilities for concession or lease; the use of information technology to manage the transport and logistics system of the region; implementation of the concept of «green» logistics, which will allow combining ecology and economy into a single system to preserve the region's ecosystem and environment using environmentally friendly technologies in the field of transport and storage facilities; the introduction of digital logistics as a mechanism for the development of the transport and logistics system.
