Problems of the functioning of the transport system in the context of sustainable development

Viktoriіa Yanovska Olena Рarfentieva

The article summarized the economic, social and environmental consequences of the development of transport. A scientific search of thematic literary sources was carried out and the problems of the functioning of the transport system in the context of sustainable development were analyzed. Databases of Ukrainian and international organizations were used to substantiate individual conclusions. Based on the results of the literature review and mostly retrospective analysis, the processes of mutual influence of socio-economic systems, natural environment and transport were described. It was found that the economic activity of the transport and logistics sector exerts a large-scale, complex and complementary influence on the external environment, causing the emergence of a number of environmental and social effects. Atmospheric pollution, traffic accidents, accidents, disasters, water pollution, noise and vibration, energy consumption, ecological footprint, business activity, mobility were included in the main external effects that have a significant impact on human health, the state of the environment, and well-being. and social integration. In the context of sustainability, the most important segments of the transport infrastructure are those that cause the largest amount of external impact. As the study showed, in terms of the scale of the ecological footprint and energy consumption, the volume of atmospheric emissions, traffic accidents and other pollution, road transport has the greatest impact on the environment. The impact of rail, water, air and pipeline transport has less total effects and is more differentiated
