PROBLEMS AND PROSPECTS OF RIVER TRANSPORT DEVELOPMENT IN UKRAINE
Abstract
Introduction: River transport plays an important role in the transport system of Ukraine, but greater efforts are still needed to realize its potential. In connection with changes in the geopolitical and economic situation at the regional level, the strategic planning of the development of river transport is becoming an urgent task for Ukraine. The work is devoted to the study of problems and prospects for the development of river transport in Ukraine with the aim of identifying ways to increase its efficiency and competitiveness. The main factors affecting the development of river transport, including economic and technological aspects, are analyzed. Purpose: The main purpose is to analyze the current state of river transport in Ukraine, identify its key problems and prospects for development. Identification of problems and factors affecting the development of river transport in Ukraine. Determination of specific measures to improve the cargo delivery system. Results: Analysis of the current state of river transportation in Ukraine showed that serious obstacles to its development (besides the political situation) are the presence of weak infrastructure, inefficient management, and unstable legislation. However, the potential for further improvement of this mode of transport has been identified, in particular by replenishing the fleet with barge vessels, implementing effective management practices and stimulating investments. Conclusions: Based on the analysis, it can be concluded that river transport has a significant potential for further development in Ukraine. However, to achieve this, systemic changes in the infrastructure and organization of transportation are necessary. In the absence of adequate measures, this mode of transport risks remaining unused, thereby losing opportunities to ensure economic growth and sustainable development of the country.
