Digitalization is the Only Way to Develop Road Transport

In this article, the authors have approached the problem of introducing digitalization in the field of road transport.

The purpose of this study is an attempt to determine the features of the interaction of new digital technologies with the system of freight and passenger road transport.

During the study, the main directions of digitalization implementation in the field of road transport were identified, the existing difficulties arising during the transition from the old methods of management and control of motor transport to the new digital ones were indicated.

As a result, conclusions are drawn about the need for the early introduction of digital methods of organization and management of road transport with extensive use of artificial intelligence.

The introduction of digital methods of organizing transportation activities has broad support from both the Government of the Russian Federation and the business community of Russia. The transition to the digital economy is impossible without a primary transition in its “circulatory system” - the transport system.
