Abstract
The article deals with development of the system of border checkpoints operating within the objects of transport infrastructure.
A classification of three blocks of tasks related to infrastructure, control technologies, and administration has been proposed.
The necessity of unification of requirements for design, construction, reconstruction, equipment and technical equipment of buildings, premises and facilities necessary for organization of border, customs and other types of control carried out at checkpoints, their integration with transport infrastructure facilities (sea and river ports, airports, railway stations) at the design stage are explained.
Optimization approaches are proposed, including use of promising information technology in organization and operation of border checkpoints. In addition, it is concluded that it is necessary to organize training and advanced training of specialists in this field on the basis of transport universities.
