  • Optimization of Regional Public Transport System: the Case of Perm Krai
    Elena Koncheva, Nikolay Zalesskiy, Pavel Zuzin OPTIMIZATION OF REGIONAL PUBLIC TRANSPORT SYSTEM: THE CASE OF PERM KRAI BASIC RESEARCH PROGRAM WORKING PAPERS SERIES: URBAN AND TRANSPORTATION STUDIES WP BRP 01/URB/2015 This Working Paper is an output of a research project implemented at the National Research University Higher School of Economics (HSE). Any opinions or claims contained in this Working Paper do not necessarily reflect the views of HSE. 1 1 2 2 3 Elena Koncheva , Nikolay Zalesskiy , Pavel Zuzin OPTIMIZATION OF REGIONAL PUBLIC TRANSPORT SYSTEM: THE CASE OF PERM KRAI4 Liberalization of regional public transport market in Russia has led to continuing decline of service quality. One of the main results of the liberalization is the emergence of inefficient spatial structures of regional public transport systems in Russian regions. While the problem of optimization of urban public transport system has been extensively studied, the structure of regional public transport system has been referred less often. The question is whether the problems of spatial structure are common for regional and public transportation systems, and if this is the case, whether the techniques developed for urban public transport planning and management are applicable to regional networks. The analysis of the regional public transport system in Perm Krai has shown that the problems of cities and regions are very similar. On this evidence the proposals were made in order to employ urban practice for the optimization of regional public transport system. The detailed program was developed for Perm Krai which can be later on adapted for other regions. JEL Classification: R42.
