Perspective tasks of the transport system in increasing the economic security of the region

The article is devoted to the urgent tasks of improving and modernizing the transport system of the Sughd region of the Republic of Tajikistan. A set of measures for the development of the transport system of the region is proposed, the implementation of which will allow to qualitatively improve the transport infra-structure and logistics and thereby increase the economic security and investment attractiveness of the Sughd region. Based on the analysis of the state of road, rail, and aviation transport in the region, the authors conclude that there are significant infrastructure constraints that do not fully meet the increasing demand for freight and passenger transportation. Taking into account the identified imbalances, a set of promising tasks for the development of transport in key areas is formulated, including road infrastructure, passenger transportation, railway modernization, air traffic and logistics. Special attention is paid to the development of the logistics infrastructure of the region, improving the technological efficiency of the industry, and training qualified personnel. It is emphasized that the long-term economic security and investment attractiveness of the Sughd region will depend on the solution of the identified tasks for the modernization of the transport system. The study has a pronounced practical orientation – based on the analysis of the current state of transport in the region, specific priorities for its further modernization are determined in order to stimulate sustainable economic growth.
