The article is aimed at defining the key difference between multimodal and intermodal transportations, as well as studying the role of transport operators in the organization of multimodal transportations. In the course of the study, it was identified that both in the scientific field and in practice, mixed transportation is often understood as synonymous with the concept of «multimodal transportation», but it is determined that all integrated (multimodal, intermodal, combined) and separate (segment) transportations are part of mixed ones, which complement each other. It is noted that multimodal and intermodal transportations have a certain difference between themselves, which consists in the presence of the number of contracts and the responsibility borne by the transportation operator. It is proposed to take into account all the conditions that cause influence on the result of the decision on the implementation of multimodal transportation. In the study of theoretical and practical aspects it was possible to allocate the operators of multimodal transportation as follows: operators who operate with sea vessels; operators who do not operate with sea vessels, but may own other rolling stock, warehouses, etc.; forwarders who are not always multimodal operators and can be agents of some part of a transportation and cooperate with the main operator. Their special role in the organization of multimodal transportation is substantiated, taking into account all the factors and elements that must closely interact with each other in the delivery process. Prospects for further research in this direction are the construction of an algorithm for choosing a multimodal operator, taking into account various conditions.

In this study, the main emphasis is on the role of multimodal container transportation in global logistics and transport. The aim of the article is to consider important aspects and challenges associated with this form of transportation, including issues of efficiency, regulation and prospects for further development of this sphere and its infrastructure. The article discusses different definitions of the concept of «multimodal transportation»; the authors’ vision of the concept of «multimodal container transportation» is presented; the main participants and key factors influencing multimodal transportation are described; the advantages and disadvantages of multimodal container transportation are indicated; significance of these transportations for world trade is determined. Particular attention is paid to opportunities for improvement and innovative approaches, including the use of blockchain technology, to increase the transparency, efficiency and security of multimodal container transportation. Examples of the use of blockchain technology in the practice of world players in the container transportation market and ways to improve their work after its implementation are provided. It is noted that blockchain technology provides an opportunity to create a distributed database that guarantees the stability and inaccessibility of data for manipulation, and this makes it an ideal tool for tracking goods in multimodal transportation. This technology provides transparency, the ability to track every stage of the delivery and automated data verification, which helps to avoid errors and fraud in the logistics process. This approach to the use of blockchain technology in the logistics of multimodal container transportation can be a step towards creating more reliable, secure and efficient transport networks. This is in line with the main goal of improving and perfecting the global supply chain in the context of today’s challenges and technological possibilities.

The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) replaced the state's Division of Highways on 1 July 1973. Consistent with the creation of other state departments of transportation throughout the U.S.A. at the time, the enabling legislation envisioned a multimodal agency that would shift transportation policy and planning away from its highway emphasis. Competing conceptions of multimodalism and regional transportation governance advanced by key actors heavily influenced the policies and plans they proposed. Eventually, public and local government opposition to the implementation of multimodal transportation policies diminished the state's role while elevating the responsibilities of voluntary regional planning agencies. California's contemporary transportation policy goals remain similar to those that prevailed when Caltrans was created – reducing automobile dependency and promoting compact urban forms – but its transportation institutions were designed precisely to oppose their achievement. Supportive public coalitions now offer the best hope for realizing the state's multimodal dreams.

Full textAbstract:
In this paper methods, criteria and models of safety assessment of multimodal transportation systems are investigated. Today, new types of transportation systems are formed – multimodal transportation systems, which may be defined as the result of the synthesis of several transport systems, where different modes of transport are effectively interact. The need for such systems was formed due to the peculiarities of each mode of transport, its technological and technical characteristics, which restrain the ability to compete and promote transport interaction. In this context, the problem of transport safety assess of multimodal freight transportations becomes highly important. An analysis of modern scientific researches on topic of transport safety is conducted. Unfortunately, the considered approaches to transport safety have a set of disadvantages if the complex systems are considered in form of, for example, combined, multimodal or intermodal transportations: the problem of local optimum; the problem of safety management in case of transport company is not the actual infrastructure owner; the problem of unifying estimates for several modes of transport, and so on. The system’s safety depends on its integrity and sustainable development, which is directly dependent on the objective conditions of its formation, development and operation. At the same time, the state of safety is directly dependent on subjective factors, the purpose of which is to ensure security, i.e., to preserve the integrity and maintain sustainable development and optimal functioning of the system. Thus, there is a conditional field of protection of transport system objects, which provides counteraction to a set of existing or perceived threats. In this context, modelling the transport safety assessment of multimodal freight is relevant and requires appropriate scientific developments. In the research, methods of mathematical modelling of transport systems were used in order to develop methodological approach that could be potentially used in improving the multimodal freight transportation safety. A methodical approach to safety assessment on the example of multimodal transportation, which takes into account the drawbacks of existing studies, is proposed. The practical application of developed model was demonstrated on the existing system of multimodal transportation. The developed safety assessment method may be potentially used both to assess the transportation route safety level and as key factor in optimal transportation route designing.

The development of the modern technologies for passenger transportation and the integration of rail routes with other modes of transport using logistics contributes to the increasing of the mobility of the people and the increasing of the economic efficiency in general. The market of the passenger transportation by rail on the North Caucasian railway is analyzed. Multimodal passenger transportation is one of the most effective tools for increasing the mobility of the people. Social factors are determined, the fundamental idea of the organizing of the multimodal passenger transportation using a mobile application is proposed, this allows to determine the optimal route for a passenger to travel to all specified points. Using research methods within the framework of a comparative and logical analysis, variants of digitalization of the multimodal passenger transportation services by the world's leading railway operators are considered. As a result, it was detected that a promising direction of multimodal transportation is the combination of the train routes not only with the regional bus routes, but also with the integration of the urban transport through the digitalization of services and the development of the customer services. The organization of the passenger service in multimodal transportations at transport hubs and options for a convenient and rational orientation of movement for passengers are considered.

The multimodal transportation development is a priority of Ukraine's transport policy due to the unique transport and geographical position at the intersection of European and Eurasian roads, international transport corridors.However, there is no legislation on the multimodal transportation in Ukraine. Thus, it is relevant to determine the legal and organizational basis of multimodal transportation, legal status of participants in such transportation, state support for multimodal transportation and related infrastructure. Today, the transport system of Ukraine has the low level of development of transport infrastructure to ensure the proper volume of the multimodal transportation. There are not enough multimodal transport terminals in Ukraine. Due to the lack of state support and the lack of a favorable investment climate, there is no development of existing multimodal infrastructure facilities. The formation procedure of tariffs for multimodal transportation in Ukraine is imperfect. The article considers the main provisions of the draft Law of Ukraine "On Multimodal Transportation" and reveals its imperfections in the formation of a single tariff. The international experience of rates formation and the main stages of this process are studied. It is offered the methodical approach of formation of the multimodal transportation`s single tariff based on unification of key elements of technological process on which transport costs are formed. The conceptual bases of ensuring the transport infrastructure development on the basis of multimodality have been improved. It is given the author's vision of the terms "multimodal transportation", "intermodal transportation", "combined transportation".

Along with the rapid development of the economy and the increasing demand for transport quality, renewed attention to multimodal transportation has emerged. However, due to the unpredictable transport environment in the process of multimodal transportation and the uncertainties caused by the change of transport market demand, transport decision-makers face many difficulties in transport planning and routing, which has become an obstacle to the development of multimodal transportation. As an advanced form of multimodal transportation, synchromodal transportation has received extensive attention in recent years. Due to its flexibility and sustainability, synchromodal transportation can effectively deal with the uncertainty in multimodal transportation. Based on the problem of multimodal transportation networks with uncertainties, this paper proposed a mixed time-window-constrained path optimization model with the goal of minimizing the total transportation costs, and proposed corresponding assumptions considering three types of uncertainty. The model could be solved by a genetic algorithm using MATLAB software. Using this model, the best transportation path and the optimal scheme considering synchronization were obtained. The results of the case study showed that synchromodal transportation can adjust the transportation plan in time to respond to uncertainties, thus, effectively reducing transportation costs. This paper favorably supported the introduction of synchromodal transportation, which is of significance to the development of multimodal transportation in the future.

In order to verify the high efficiency and low carbon nature of multimodal transport, this paper, according to the main components and network characteristics of multimodal transport, takes container multimodal transport as the research object, and comprehensively considers the carbon emission and transportation time in the transportation process. To minimize the comprehensive cost of container multimodal transport, the comprehensive cost model of multimodal transport including time, transportation and replacement cost is established. At the same time, combined with the actual calculation of examples, the design and analysis of the multimodal transport scheme. As for the transportation time, this paper introduces the monthly depreciation rate of goods and transforms the transportation time into the time cost. It can be concluded that with the increase of the monthly depreciation rate of goods, the multimodal transport mode is more economical and efficient than the single transportation mode. For the problem of carbon emission, this paper will quantify the carbon emission, it can be found that in the multimodal transportation, the reasonable connection of transportation mode can greatly reduce the carbon emission in the transportation process, so as to achieve low carbon transportation

This study is aimed at increasing the efficiency of multimodal freight transportations by forming a risks management system based on the identification of transport risk factors, methods of their measurement and management both at the projecting (planning) stage of the multimodal route and further on – in order to assess their possible impact on the efficiency of freight transportation in general. The authors examine the problematics of multimodal freight transportations organization in the context of transport risks management, which provides for the choice of such an option of management influences on elements of the transportation system (logistics centers, transport hubs, various types of transport, freight transport units, specific transport companies and their rolling stock, containers, etc.), in which freight delivery would be carried out in terms of the most efficient and qualitative indicators under the known initial conditions and existing restrictions. The article substantiates the proposals development in view of optimal relationships between elements of multimodal freight transportations on the basis of an efficient risks management system, which is a special type of management activity directed towards mitigating the influence of risk groups, determining the permissible (acceptable) level of risk based on methods that allow avoiding losses arising as result of a particular risk. A methodical approach to choosing the optimal multimodal transport-technological scheme is proposed, which allows considering subjective criteria (completeness of service, reliability, etc.) as decisive under the condition of relatively equal cost and time of alternative freight delivery options and in the context of permissible values of such objective criteria as storage conditions, high-speed mode of transportation in the territory of a particular country, region, city, axial load, climatic conditions, ecological restrictions, etc. At the scientific-methodological level, the stage of the decision-making process is generalized along with the separation of relevant goals in the context of managing transport risks in multimodal freight transportations, the observance of which will guarantee to ensure the acceptance by the operator of multimodal transportations of a rational and secure transport-technological scheme of freight delivery.

This paper explores the challenges of finding robust shortest paths in multimodal transportation networks. With the increasing complexity and uncertainties in modern transportation systems, developing efficient and reliable routing strategies that can adapt to various disruptions and modal changes is essential. By incorporating practical constraints in parameter uncertainty, this paper establishes a robust shortest path mixed-integer programming model based on a multimodal transportation network under transportation time uncertainty. To solve robust shortest path problems with multimodal transportation, we propose a modified Dijkstra algorithm that integrates parameter uncertainty with multimodal transportation. The effectiveness of the proposed multimodal transportation shortest path algorithm is verified using empirical experiments on test sets of different scales and a comparison of the runtime using a commercial solver. The experimental results on the multimodal transportation networks demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach in providing robust and efficient routing solutions. The results demonstrate that the proposed method can generate optimal solutions to the robust shortest path problem in multimodal transportation under time uncertainty and has practical significance.

AASHTO, in cooperation with NCHRP, has initiated a series of research studies dealing with the issue of multimodal transportation planning. This paper comments on some of the findings from the one project in this series that focuses on the dynamics of partnerships formed to carry out the planning, design, and implementation of multimodal and intermodal projects. An intensive industry scan has been completed, resulting in an interactive data base of approximately 60 multimodal projects throughout the country. From these 60 candidate projects, 12 were selected for more intensive study through a case study approach. The results of the case studies revealed a number of common, underlying themes. Included among those themes is the finding that local governments and private sector partners must be included in earlier stages of multimodal transportation planning than is currently being practiced. One of the key hypotheses tested with the data available on these partnerships was the impact of the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991 (ISTEA) as a catalyst to stimulate multimodal projects and to improve the multimodal planning process. In this regard, one finding of this study is that before the 1990s, it appears that a major emphasis of partnership formation was simply to secure funding from a variety of sources for such projects. Since ISTEA was passed, however, objectives more frequently cited by partners relate to meeting societal values and traveler needs.

Purpose. This study aims to assess the regional market concentration of multimodal transport (on the example of the Zaporizhzhia region) and the distribution of "market power" in the freight transport segment between market participants in multimodal transportation. Design/methodology/approach. Authors in the article used the literature review method to substantiate the importance of identifying competition and distinguishing it among other related concepts in the development of regional markets for multimodal transportation by disclosing the specifics of their geographical location, availability of water resources, the establishment of logistics infrastructure, the volume of export-import flows of goods and other essential features in the process of an integrated approach to the formation of the regional market for multimodal transportation and, thus, to justify the relevance of the research topic. The market concentration of multimodal transport in the Zaporizhia region (using: concentration index, Lind index, Herfindahl–Hirschman index, and Gini index) allowed us to identify the company that forms the “core” of the market and determines its role in shaping the market. (According to analytical calculations, this includes PJSC “Ukrzaliznytsia”). The conducted analytical analyses allowed to suggest directions of development for the regional multimodal transportations market, particularly the identification of competition levels. Findings. Were proved the hypothesis concerning the need to eliminate the market monopolization of multimodal transportation in the Zaporizhzhia region and strengthen intra-industry and intersectoral competition in it. In particular, the development of the regional market of multimodal transportation should meet the industry needs and take into account the sectoral and regional peculiarities of all transport modes' functioning to develop multimodal technologies of cargo transportation. Practical implications. This study's results are of interest to multimodal transport market operators and cargo owners who are interested in the active implementation of logistics concept into regions development, the practical implementation of which should be, in particular, the intensification centers of cargo handling. These centers are entrusted with the functions of transshipment of goods from one to other transport modes, the allocation of links in the integrated transport chain, the formation of economic development centers in certain regions. This involves, in particular, the construction of multimodal regional clusters. In this way, it is expected to increase the involvement of cargo flows in the regions, the development (intra-industry – between different participants in the transportation process of goods; intersectoral – between different modes of transport in the area; commodity competition – under the conditions of transition to cargo substitute transportation; geographical – in terms of goods delivery by an alternative route); growth of employment in the freight sector and other related industries, etc. The evaluation results of the development of multimodal cargo transportation can be taken into account by the Coordination Council for Logistics at the Ministry of Infrastructure of Ukraine to form strategic foundations for the country’s logistics system development. The components of such a strategy should relate to the improvement of multimodal freight transport, the optimization of regional and interregional transport cooperation, the progress of the management of logistics supply chains; increasing the profitability of the transport sector, the formation of economic benefits from the trade development, the national economy cooperation, and development. Originality/value. Assessing the concentration of regional markets will provide an analytical basis in the process of forming a mechanism to ensure the efficiency of multimodal freight comprehensively and minimize interregional asymmetries: the levels of cargo flow by the stated needs of consumers; state of transport and logistics infrastructure; provision of all types of transportation method, service levels, etc.

Multimodal transportation is becoming the new norm. The center of providing the transportation process is changing from the vehicle to the passenger experience and related services provided. Multimodal transportation is becoming an important player in transportation systems because it can facilitate high-quality intermodal transportation. However, these innovative transportations are not yet widespread enough. The paper is devoted to the analysis of the experience of using theoretical and practical aspects of the use of multimodal transportation in innovative airport hubs, the search for means of integrating multimodality into the transport hub, the evaluation and selection of new alternative ways of determining the level of integration of various participants in the transport process. The study is aimed at studying the previous experience of using hub airports as multimodal transport hubs. The experience of combining several transport modes into one large transport hub with a diverse range of services indicates unconditional competitive advantages. However, hub airports have some features that create difficulties when transitioning to multimodal transport complexes. The paper examines the theoretical foundations of the use and integration of alternative airport hubs at hub airports. In particular, how to evaluate and select new alternative methods, how to determine the appropriate level of participation at different stages and how to integrate new methods into airport hubs in future studies. The proposed approach to the organization of airport hubs, overcoming obstacles on the way to the creation of a multimodal transport complex and solving a scientific and applied problem that will successfully contribute to innovations in the transport modality. In particular, a growing demand among passengers at airports to facilitate the transfer process from one type of transport to another has been revealed. Which leads to benefits and rapid adoption of innovations in airports. The importance of theoretical research lies in identifying the growing demand for multimodal transport complexes, infrastructure development and customer service at airports.

The advantage of multimodal transport is that it can deliver the goods to their destination in a reasonable combination of transport modes while ensuring security and punctuality. Multimodal transportation can effectively reduce logistics costs, improve logistics efficiency, and reduce environmental pollution. In the process of multimodal transportation, due to the interference of natural factors (weather, terrain, etc.) and some special human factors, it may have different degrees of impact on the transportation time and transportation safety of different transportation modes. Therefore, when choosing a transportation method, it is necessary to consider the transportation time and transportation safety under the interference. However, the current research on multimodal transport has not considered the impact of external interference on transportation time and transportation safety. Compared with other modes of transportation, external interference has a relatively small impact on railway transportation. Railways can safely deliver goods to their destinations on time. Under the background of China’s huge railway network and advanced heavy-duty technology, this paper establishes a multimodal transport route selection model for considering railway as the core, introduces time penalty cost and damage compensation cost, and takes the lowest comprehensive transportation cost as the model objective under the premise of considering transportation reliability and transportation safety. Finally, taking a multimodal transport network in China as an example, an improved ant colony algorithm is used to solve the model and the results verify the rationality of the model.

The article deals with the peculiarities of domestic and foreign experience hubs. The object of study - the process of multimodal transport hubs in traffic. The purpose of the work - in analyzing the domestic and foreign experience of transport nodes to identify ways to improve multimodal transport nodes. The research method is analytical. The most important structural unit of multimodal transport systems are multimodal transport nodes. By the term multimodal transport hub (MTH) understand the geographical point of docking and interaction of several types of transport, through which multimodal transportation is carried out. Such a hub may combine the railway stations connecting their railways, sea and river ports, airports, stations, highways, terminal and intermediate objects of main pipelines, and municipal transport networks. The infrastructure of the MTH includes warehouses and cargo terminals with traffic control and distribution centers, customs clearance facilities, transport insurance, organizations representing freight forwarding and banking services. In the analysis of domestic and foreign experience of transport hub, it was discovered that transport nodes are the bridgeheads of organizational-technical and technological interaction of different types of transport, implementation of multimodal transportations on logistic principles. The capacity of transport hubs in Ukraine is at a critical point. In modern conditions, the power of transport hubs is not sufficient for the volume of freight traffic, including and transit grew. In order to eliminate "bottlenecks" in transport hubs of Ukraine, it is necessary to improve the technical and operational capabilities of the infrastructure objects, their technical re-equipment and modernization. The results of the work can be applied to develop measures for the improvement of multimodal transport hubs. Foreseeable assumptions about the development of the research object - the search for ways to improve multimodal transport hubs.

Multimodal transportation is an important component of the transport system. The development of multimodal transportation requires coordination of various modes of transport and their integration into a single organizational system that operates on the basis of the formation of logistics centers. The article considers the problem of forming an ecosystem of multimodal transportation in Ukraine, reveals the peculiarities of its taxation and interaction in the digital economy. The existing regulatory and legal support of logistic activities in Ukraine is also analyzed. At present, multimodal transportation is of great importance for the economy of Ukraine. This is one of the important innovative directions in the development of the transport system at both the national and the international levels. Despite the fact that this direction is actively developing, today there is no clear legal and contractual support for this institution. The article analyzes the role of tax regulation of multimodal transportation along with the risks of environmental burden. It is noted that in Ukraine, amendments to the legislation in the field of regulation of multimodal transportation are extremely important, as well as the need to adopt a separate law that would allow to develop modern methods of cargo delivery, improve the quality of service for consumers of transport services, and reduce transportation costs. Among the main reasons that hinder the development of mixed transportation are the following: imperfection of the regulatory and legal settlement of multimodal transportation issues and the disparity between the levels of development of the capacity of ports for processing goods and railway infrastructure. The prospect of further research is the development of a theoretical and methodological approach to the choice of strategies and instruments for the development of transport infrastructure and tax regulation of multimodal transportation.

Topicality. The urgency of the study is due to the fact that in Ukraine the volume of cargo transportation using multimodal technologies is growing. Therefore, increasing the efficiency of multimodal transportation using the latest methods of their optimization is timely. This is especially true for those modes of transport whose share in total freight turnover is relatively small.
Aim and tasks.The main purpose of the study is to develop theoretical and applied provisions and algorithms for finding the optimal solution for several target functions with different measurement scales to increase the efficiency of multimodal transportation, in particular, with the alternative use of different modes of transport. To achieve this goal, the following tasks arose: to study the impact of the monopolization of the transportation market by certain modes of transport on the reliability and efficiency of transportation; solving the problem of optimization of freight transportation from the national or general industry point of view; study of the importance of the development of inland water transport to increase the efficiency and reliability of multimodal transport; creating an algorithm for finding the optimal solution for several target functions.
Research results.Theoretical and applied positions of search of the optimum decision on several target functions with different scale of measurement for increase of efficiency of multimodal transportations, including, at alternative use of different types of transport are investigated. The study proved that the choice of only one of the traditional target functions of transport companies - the cost or time of transportation does not guarantee its effectiveness without assessing the risks of transportation of goods. An algorithm for selecting the optimal solution for several objective functions is proposed. To do this, we used the method of finding the extremum of each of them by its own nontrivial subset. It is proved that these sets, in the general case, are not identical, so to find a solution for several objective functions complicated by their different dimensions, the principle of compromise must be used.The study established a significant degree of monopolization of the transportation market by certain modes of transport and indicated that to solve the problem of optimization of freight transportation from the national or general industry point of view requires equalization of disparities in freight turnover by mode of transport.Conclusion.Analysis of the results of the study allows us to draw the following conclusions: to use the resource to increase the efficiency and reliability of cargo transportation, especially for multimodal transportation technologies, it is necessary to equalize the disproportions of cargo turnover by types of cargo transportation to avoid monopolization of the transport market. To increase the efficiency of transportation, the latest algorithm for selecting the optimal solution for several target functions is proposed. The introduction of this algorithm to optimize multimodal transportation in scientific and practical problems will allow to take into account the risks and find a compromise solution in complex problems of finding solutions for the transportation of goods.

Full textAbstract:
The article highlights the topical issue of the development of container multimodal transport, which is a priority in the development of transport services; their use will increase the volume of cargo delivered to the destination by the most efficient modes of transport (their combination). Container transportation of goods significantly reduces the cost of delivery of goods from producers to consumers. Container transportation has become the most economical without transshipment technology and, above all, in the intercontinental multimodal land-sea service. The work aims to study the practical aspects and substantiate practical recommendations for the logistics of multimodal container transportation of goods in global supply chains. Conduct a comparative analysis of implementing multimodal container traffic in different containers, namely 20 and 40 feet. The analysis and calculations of the data of container transportation processes for the conditions of two international transport corridors, TRACECA and the trans-Caspian international transport route, are carried out. The cost of transportation by sea, although their number is small relative to the total share of routes, significantly affects the total cost of transportation. In order to stimulate freight traffic on these routes, member states have set discounts of up to 10% of the cost of the ferry fare. Studies suggest that the use of multimodal container traffic is currently economically feasible. The conducted research of practical aspects and substantiation of practical recommendations on logistics of multimodal container transportation of goods in global supply chains suggests that container transportation is a way of delivery today using multimodal options for delivery of goods. An in-depth comparative analysis of implementing multimodal container traffic in different containers, namely 20 and 40 feet, allows us to conclude that using the Trans-Caspian International Transport Route (TMTM) with a 20-foot container is more economically attractive and can be recommended. Keywords: container transportation, supply chains, logistics, international transport corridors, multimodal transportation.

To ensure a successful implementation of Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) on the roadways, we must have an accurate assessment of the current condition of our transportation network and we need to continually monitor its performance and make necessary improvements as needed. To better understand how technologies like ITS are helping to optimise time on the road, it is good to gain a basic understanding of how this technology works. Intelligent transportation systems (ITS) are networks that offer users the option to either drive on a pre-programmed route that takes an average of around 40 to 45 minutes, or choose a different route that would take around 30 minutes. This often results in users spending less time in their cars when compared to a traditional drive-through model. A 2021 report from McKinsey & Company states “A typical smart city is envisioned, featuring shorter trips (either for commute, errands, or entertainment), along dedicated, on-demand routes to reduce the need to travel long distances as well as the physical inefficiencies of vehicle miles traveled". Integrated transportation services could also offer modern commutes a greater range of options, such as having the ability to purchase and use an electric vehicle (EV) onsite, or utilise public transit on the go. This multi-modal approach is proving more and more popular with businesses and cities, and many are making it a priority when it comes to implementing new infrastructure. Cities like Beijing, for example, have already started to incorporate autonomous vehicle (AV) fleets, which services drivers as they travel during their commute. Plans such as these portray a great future for the transportation network, but we have some way to go to reach this goal. Here we will discuss some other efficient solution for Intelligent Traffic Management.

Purpose: To build an optimization model of multimodal cargo transportations in a port-side transport and technological system with the participation of rail and sea kinds of transport based on egalitarian principles, the model allows manipulating the values of parameters characterizing a transportation process and taking into account interests of transportation process participants within the frames of being considered cost indicators. Methods: An algorithm has been developed for planning the shipment and delivery of cargo flows to port station address in view of routing, time and cost parameters of transportation process which under, cost optimal values of being transported cargo and complex time indicators of transportation process are provided. One of the limitations in the optimization task is the volume of a ship batch that’s expected at any port unloading stations. The built mathematical model is a multi-criteria and multi-extreme task of nonlinear stochastic integer programming. The research theoretical and economic basis is the synthesis of the classical concepts of utilitarian and egalitarian approaches in a welfare theory that makes it possible to build sounded theoretically and demanded in practice the optimization models of multimodal freight transportation railway component. Results: Developed in analytical computing system environment the optimization algorithm provides opportunities along with Pareto optimal transportation plans for to find plans embodying “just in time” logistic concept, so at these plans, it is also achieved the balance of interests of transportation considered participants. Practical importance: An approach is proposed for to study freight transportation organization on a railway landfill wherein transportations are pursued within the framework of multimodal port-side transport and technological system. The developed models and algorithms can be recommended for practical use during the formation and analysis of logistic supply chains with rail and sea transport kind participation.

The article examines the peculiarities of the creation and development of the institutional framework for securing multimodal transportation in Ukraine. The article reviews the main regulatory acts of Ukraine in the field of cargo transportation in the context of their regulation of procedural issues related to multimodal transportation (provisions of regulatory acts until 2021). Bilateral agreements on international combined transportation between the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine and the governments of individual states are described. The existing bilateral documents on the compatibility of different types of railways and other technical standards signed between Ukraine and the European Union are analyzed (Ukraine-EU Action Plan and the EU-Ukraine Association Agenda to prepare and facilitate the implementation of the Association Agreement (Chapter 7. Other forms of cooperation. Transport; effective from November 23, 2009)). The article analyzes the provisions of the 2020 Transport Strategy of Ukraine and the Draft Law of Ukraine “On Combined Transportation” in the context of their regulation of the priorities for the development of various modes of transport in the country and the development of transport and logistics technologies and multimodal transportation facilities. The following problems in multimodal transportation in the period up to 2021 are identified (i.e., in the absence of a separate special institutional framework for multimodal transportation in Ukraine): lack of clear regulation and terminological confusion in the categories of “multimodal transportation”, “combined (mixed) transportation”, and “intermodal transportation” as in fact, these concepts were equated; imperfect legal regulation of the organization of container transportation and transportation of removable bodies; imperfect legal regulation of contractual relations between the shippers (or their representatives) and carriers (the carrier changed at each stage of cargo transportation); ambiguity and dissonance of certain provisions of various legal acts regulating the property liability of interacting enterprises at transport hubs, issues of liability of the parties in combined transportation, compensation for damage in case of non-safety of cargo and/or rolling stock as a result of force majeure, mutual settlements, transport documents, customs requirements, rights and obligations of mixed transportation operators, etc. The article analyzes the current 2030 National Transport Strategy of Ukraine, the Law of Ukraine “On Multimodal Transportation”, and the Recovery Plan of Ukraine in the context of their regulation of procedural issues of multimodal transportation, as well as the identification of measures to promote the development of domestic multimodal transshipment terminals.

There are many transportation nodes in multimodal transport. It is more in line with the actual transportation situation to reasonably select the transportation mode from the perspective of the elastic constraint of arrival time. Considering the elastic constraint of arrival time, the soft time window factor is brought into the research of multimodal transport route optimization, the route optimization model is established, and the appropriate genetic algorithm is selected and designed to deal with it. So as to obtain the optimal transportation scheme of multimodal transport, multimodal transport system optimization involves many factors such as multimodal transport organization, policy, process, responsibility, coordination, and environment.

Multimodal transportation will not only increase the intensity of use of vehicles, but also reduce the passenger's travel time. The main task of organizing multimodal transportation is to maximally satisfy the demand of the population for transport services with the most efficient use of rolling stock. The problem of reducing the number of direct routes can b solved either by developing direct connections, or by switching to multimodal transportation with the condition of coordinating the time of transfer. The paper describes in detail the development of multimodal passengers transportation organization.

The optimization of emergency logistical transportation is crucial for the timely dispatch of aid and support to affected areas. By incorporating practical constraints into emergency logistics, this study establishes a multi-objective shortest path mixed-integer programming model based on a multimodal transportation network. To solve multi-objective shortest path problems with multimodal transportation, we design an ideal point method and propose a procedure for constructing the complete Pareto frontier based on the k-shortest path multi-objective algorithm. We use modified Dijkstra and Floyd multimodal transportation shortest path algorithms to build a k-shortest path multi-objective algorithm. The effectiveness of the proposed multimodal transportation shortest path algorithm is verified using empirical experiments carried out on test sets of different scales and a comparison of the runtime using a commercial solver. The results show that the modified Dijkstra algorithm has a runtime that is 100 times faster on average than the modified Floyd algorithm, which highlights its greater applicability in large-scale multimodal transportation networks, demonstrating that the proposed method both has practical significance and can generate satisfactory solutions to the multi-objective shortest path problem with multimodal transportation in the context of emergency logistics.

Abstract Multimodal transportation is getting more and more attention due to its economical and efficient characteristics. Choosing a reasonable transportation plan can effectively control transportation costs. Considering that there are fixed schedules for railway and waterway transportation in real life, this article will establish a multimodal transportation route optimization model with the goal of minimizing the total transportation cost consisting of transportation cost, transit cost, waiting cost and carbon emission cost. The genetic algorithm based on preservation strategy and immigration strategy is used to solve the model. The effectiveness of the model is proved by the case study, and it can provide decision support for the choice of multimodal transportation scheme.

In this paper, some basic concepts of multimodal transportation and swarm intelligence were described and reviewed and analyzed related literatures of multimodal transportation scheme decision and swarm intelligence methods application areas. Then, this paper established a multimodal transportation scheme decision optimization mathematical model based on transportation costs, transportation time, and transportation risks, explained relevant parameters and the constraints of the model in detail, and used the weight coefficient to transform the multiobjective optimization problems into a single objective optimization transportation scheme decision problem. Then, this paper is proposed by combining particle swarm optimization algorithm and ant colony algorithm (PSACO) to solve the combinatorial optimization problem of multimodal transportation scheme decision for the first time; this algorithm effectively combines the advantages of particle swarm optimization algorithm and ant colony algorithm. The solution shows that the PSACO algorithm has two algorithms’ advantages and makes up their own problems; PSACO algorithm is better than ant colony algorithm in time efficiency and its accuracy is better than that of the particle swarm optimization algorithm, which is proved to be an effective heuristic algorithm to solve the problem about multimodal transportation scheme decision, and it can provide economical, reasonable, and safe transportation plan reference for the transportation decision makers.

The development of multimodal transport has had a significant impact on China’s transportation industry. Due to the variability of the market environment, in this study, based on the context of the official launch of the national carbon emission trading market, the uncertainty of the demand and the randomness of carbon trading prices were considered. Taking minimum total transportation cost as the objective function, a robust stochastic optimization model of container multimodal transport was constructed, and a hybrid fireworks algorithm with gravitational search operator (FAGSO) was designed to solve and verify the effectiveness of the algorithm. Using a 35-node multimodal transportation network as an example, the multimodal transportation costs and schemes under three different modes were compared and analyzed, and the influence of parameter uncertainty was determined. The results show that the randomness of carbon trading prices will lead to an increase or decrease in the total transport cost, while robust optimization with uncertain demand will be affected by the regret value constraint, resulting in an increase in the total transport cost. Multimodal carriers can reduce transportation costs, reduce carbon emissions, and improve the transportation efficiency of multimodal transportation by comprehensively weighing the randomness of carbon trading prices, the nondeterminism of demand, and the relationship between the selection of maximum regret values and transportation costs.

Urban multimodal transportation effectively meets the diversified travel demand of residents. However, it also generates extensive development problems such as traffic congestion, exhaust emissions and low operational efficiency. Therefore, there is an urgent need in urban sustainable development to achieve the coordinated and stable development of various modes of transportation. In this study, we took 36 major cities in China as the research object; measured the comprehensive development level of urban multimodal transportation; used the coupling coordination degree model (CCDM) to research the coordinated development relationship among buses, rail transit, and taxis; and clarified the shortcomings of the coordinated development of multimodal transportation. The results show that the comprehensive development of urban multimodal transportation in China has shown a significant upward trend from 2016 to 2020, with an average annual growth rate of about 7.36%. There are significant differences in the development levels of multimodal transportation in different cities. In addition, the relationship among buses, rail transit, and taxis in the major cities in China presents a state of uncoordinated development. Therefore, the relevant departments of cities should optimize the allocation of transportation resources, in terms of infrastructure construction and operation, according to these development levels and coordination of multimodal transportation.

Intermodal transportation, as an efficient form of transport organization, is a key technology and means for the logistics industry to balance transport costs and efficiency. How to deeply analyze the key factors constraining the level of development of multimodal transportation in China, building multimodal transportation development evaluation index system and evaluation model, evaluating comprehensively the multimodal transportation development level in China, and putting forward targeted countermeasures is of great practical significance. Based on the hesitant fuzzy multiattribute decision-making method, this paper analyzes the key factors influencing the level of multimodal transportation development from the perspective of sea-rail intermodal transport and further uses the interval number discretization and likelihood deviation maximization multiattribute decision-making method to construct a mixed-data index evaluation model, which is combined with data from 11 provinces (cities) in China. The study shows that there is a big gap among different provinces (cities) in China concerning the level of multimodal transportation development. Besides, the volume of intermodal container transportation and railway mileage are the core factors affecting the level of multimodal transportation development, and the results of the evaluation model can objectively reflect the level of multimodal transportation development and problems in each province (city). The research results further enrich the theoretical system of intermodal transportation development and provide a reference for the relevant management departments in formulating intermodal transportation plans and policies by putting forward pertinent suggestions in the field of management. In the future, the research direction should include the ecological environment, economic benefits, and other indicators into the evaluation system, expand the research scope of the modes of combined transportation such as public rail transport and public air transport, and improve the applicable scope of the evaluation model and the evaluation capability of specific scenarios.

During the process of analyzing Russian and foreign studies in the field of multimodal cargo transportation, existing methods for improving the efficiency of the multimodal transport system are considered. Improving efficiency of multimodal transportation today is possible due to the optimization of the interaction system between the used modes of transport and transportation of goods. Cost reduction, optimization of cargo terminals, the formation and development of the transport corridors network also play an important role in improving this type of transportation. The use of the new capabilities of satellite navigation, as well as the importance of reducing the environmental load and fuel economy should not be underestimated. The minimization of risks throughout the field of multimodal transportation, the improvement of the legislative framework and document management processes are important. To solve these problems, experts propose methods for the operational management of cargo delivery and expedited transportation. Based on these methods, the place of transport logistics in the process of bringing goods to the consumer during multimodal transportation is determined. A methodology for designing a multimodal transport network has been developed, this methodology involves the formation and development of transport corridors, taking into account new conditions for the globalization of transportation. Researches on the organization of transportation using multimodal transport units and technologies (containers, contrailers, "running highway") have been conducted. Based on the theory of controlled networks and integer linear programming methods, the experts developed mathematical models for the distribution of cargo flows, the choice of the most favorable transportation routes, ideal loading of rolling stock, and transportation of goods using the best forwarding algorithm. Methods are proposed for assessing the maximum capacity of the transport network and predicting the interference of weather conditions in the process of goods transportation, based on the Ford-Fulkerson theorem on the maximum flow and minimum cross section and the use of the mathematical apparatus of Markov chains. As a result of the analysis, it was concluded that the lack of a universal methodology for managing multimodal transportation processes on the basis of a telecommunication platform requires the formulation and solution of the important scientific and practical problem - the development of popular organizational and management methods, technological solutions to ensure the effectiveness of multimodal transportation. The totality of the tasks to be solved in this case has important socio-economic significance for the Russian Federation.
