METHODS OF ANALYSIS OF FACTORS DETERMINING PASSENGER TRANSPORTATION DEMAND
Abstract
Development of passenger transportation market depends on many factors, in particular, level of regional economy and local transport capacity, conditions of labor migration, mobility of population and income level.
The main consumer factors for passenger longdistance rail transportation are:
• improving quality of passenger services;
• ensuring availability of transportation at price parameters of a trip;
•compliance with progressive standards of passenger service and transportation safety.
The objective of the author is to analyze factors, determining passenger transportation demand. To fulfill his task, the author uses comparative method, evaluation method, and analysis. In the article the author presents the results of the study of factors of passenger transportation market development on the basis of influence matrix of its parameters on the need for transportation in the regulated sector. Market indicators can be grouped into three clusters: transport mobility of citizens, population size, economic development of regions. Analysis of relationship between these indicators and the value of passenger turnover allows us to offer an approach to the determination of carrying capacity of long-distance rail transportation market, based on reference values of passenger traffic drivers.
