Factor-criteria assessment of greening prerequisites for transport infrastructure development in Ukraine

Abstract The article examines the elements of factor-criterion assessment greening of the prerequisites for the genesis of the transport sector of Ukraine; in particular, the results of the evaluation of the evolution of the national transport industry. The methods of regulatory influence on the stages of the genesis of the national transport sector were studied, and the main problems of the evolution of the transport sector were systematized. It was determined that environmental protection of the transport sector is an important component of country’s environmental security as a whole. The contribution of the «All-European program on transport, environment and health protection», which is implemented by the joint efforts of the UNECE and WHO, as well as the current regulatory and legal acts of Ukraine, which reflect modern trends in the integration of environmental policy into transport, are analyzed. In this model, there are international components of the sphere of service implementation, guidelines for defining goals and promising directions of greening, which will ensure the strengthening of the ecological component of the transit potential of Ukraine.
