ANALYSIS OF THE IMPACT OF DIGITALIZATION PROCESSES IN THE TRANSPORT COMPLEX ON SOCIO-ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OF A REGION

The article presents an analysis of the effects that the processes of digital transformation of the transport complex have on the indicators of the socio-economic development of the region. A more detailed analysis has been carried out for St. Petersburg. The views of various authors (Efanov A. N., Volkova E. M., Lyakina M. A.) on the classification of the effects of the development of the transport industry on the socio-economic situation of the region have been studied. The authors, based on the systematization of scientific works and their own developments, have developed groups of effects of the digital transformation of the transport sector: agglomeration, social, and economic effects. A detailed description is provided for each group in the work. The authors provide specific examples of digital transformation of the transport complex and assess their impact on the region’s economy. The current situation in the transport sector of St. Petersburg can be judged by the results of the assessment of the transport complex development index. In the work, the authors analyze the values of the Transport Complex Development Index of the largest cities in Russia, in comparison with St. Petersburg. Separately, the value of the sub-indices included in the transport complex development index for 2018 is assessed in relation to St. Petersburg (quality of transport services, availability of transport services, the impact of transport on the environment, road safety), the place of St. Petersburg is assessed by the values of these sub-indices among cities of the Russian Federation. The authors conclude that for St. Petersburg the most relevant areas of digitalization are those that improve the quality of transport services for the population, the selected areas are specified in the table. The urgency of digitalization of the transport complex of St. Petersburg is determined, which is due to the insufficient level of development of transport services provided to citizens.
