Analysis of the possibility of organizing a transport interchange complex

The carriage of passengers takes a significant place in the activities of transport organizations. Ensuring high quality passenger transportation is one of the main tasks of railway transport, which directly depends on the technical equipment and technology of servicing passenger traffic at passenger stations.
The introduction of multimodal transport in passenger traffic can change the attitude to transport in general, it will allow: to pick up each passenger the optimal combination of modes of transport (price and quality); monitor the entire transport process and notify of further movements, to hold the carrier responsible for not fulfilling the stages of multimodal transportation. And the organization of the transport and transfer complex will optimize and streamline the process of passenger service.
The study was carried out on the example of the transport hub of the station N. Station allows to transfer passengers from rail transport (long and suburban) to all types of urban transport, as well as taxis and personal transport. However, there is practically no interaction with other types of transport at the regional and federal level in this hub. At some distance from station N is a bus station for several long-distance destinations. Territorial location, concentration of several modes of transport, accompanying infrastructure, as well as the potential of this station N allow to organize a prospective transport and transfer complex and attract additional passenger flow, which in the conditions of competition with personal vehicles is important. To do this, all the necessary elements of the multimodal node, necessary for the operation of the transport and transfer complex, are calculated.
