THE IMPACT OF URBAN MASS RAPID TRANSIT ON URBANIZED REGIONS
Abstract
The author identified the main shortcomings of existing urban transport modes, described a new form of urbanized region - conurbation, refined the concept of «urban mass rapid transit transport» and «innovative transport project», proposed the technique to evaluate external effects of such projects. The need for creation of new types of passenger transport in terms of strategic and socio-economic problems of development of St. Petersburg, including on the basis of magnetic levitation technologies, is substantiated. The purpose of innovation is to significantly improve transport services for the population, reduce time and money expenses to travel, to remove some load on the highway, to reduce environmental pollution.
