The world tendencies of popularization of ecological elements of sustainable mobility and the results of their introduction in Lviv on the way to sustainable development are considered in the article. Examples of implementation of the Sustainable Mobility Plan in the city in accordance with the set priorities are given: residents, public transport, ecological means of transportation, private transport. The development of infrastructure for individual environmental means of mobility and public transport is analyzed.
This article analyzes drivers' psychophysiological perception of information on the road and the advantages of using means of automatic use of signs (TSR). A survey of drivers was conducted on the road section where traffic organization changed. The drivers were chosen with different driving experiences, age categories, and needs for using the car, but they used the road section under investigation even before its reconstruction. Drivers of vehicles by age category were divided into three categories: under 25 years of age (category 1), 42% of drivers aged 26 to 50 years (category 2), and 19% of drivers aged 50 and older (category 3). It was established that 47% of the first drivers' category use automatic road sign recognition tools, 31% of the second category use the TSR system, and only 22% of the third category use the road sign recognition system. Four new road signs were installed during the development of the design schemes for organizing traffic in the middle section at a distance of 50 m. Based on this, an additional survey was conducted on drivers' memorization of specific new signs installed on the investigated section of the road. The results of the survey of drivers of different age categories were taken into account. It was studied that the most perceived number of road signs for the third category of drivers are observed at a distance of 50 to 150 m. At a distance of 50 to 150 m, they concentrate their attention, and after 150 m, they forget about the changed scheme in the traffic organization. In conclusion, drivers, getting used to traffic routes, lose vigilance, and pay less attention to existing information signals, which causes them to make wrong decisions when changing traffic organization on certain road sections. It is proposed to use automatic road sign recognition tools that are not affected by external and internal factors to increase the reliability of drivers and ensure road safety.
The concept of "sustainable transport" as transport, which provides social and economic benefits while minimizing the adverse impact on society, the economy and the environment is identified in article. The concept of a "sustainable transport system" as a system that gives access to it to individuals and legal entities in a safe and consistent manner in accordance with human health, ecosystem needs, and meets the needs of current generations, leaving future generations with the opportunity to meet their needs, and offers a choice of safe vehicles, limiting emissions and waste, contributing to noise reduction, and reducing non-renewable consumption, consumption and reuse of renewable resources is also considered. The following factors that influence the destabilization of the processes of sustainable development of the transport system have been identified and investigated: the volumes of emissions of the main pollutants, the number of accidents, the number of victims in road accidents, the volumes of shipment (transportation) of goods by motor transport and the total number of population, using the methods of statistical analysis. The EU indicators in the field of sustainable development of the transport system (share of energy consumption in transport in the total GDP, distribution of transport tasks in freight traffic, distribution of transport tasks in passenger transport, greenhouse gas emissions by vehicles, emissions from transport overload accidents, emissions of vehicles) are analysed in this study and also the prerequisites of forming a similar system of indicators taking into account social, economic and environmental aspects to control the sustainable development of transport at the state level are investigated. Using the methods of factor analysis, the directions of sustainable development of the motor transport industry of Ukraine were estimated. A system of indicators for sustainable development of road transport in the regional dimension has been developed, which includes the characteristics of the transport system, mobility, the impact of transport, and ways of its integration into the national system of indicators have been proposed. The developed system of indicators will allow to coordinate the sustainable development of vehicles by maintaining optimal values of indicators in key areas.
