Prospects of maglev transport in the unified integrated transport system of the Eurasian Economic Union

Abstract

Background: The changes in the geopolitical situation that began in 2022 had an impact on the transport industry of the Russian Federation and the member countries of the Eurasian Economic Union. There was a need to reorganize supply chains and form logistics routes taking into account new realities while respecting the mutual interests of all participants in transport and economic and geographical processes. The development of Eurasian transport corridors and the implementation of infrastructure projects using innovative approaches continues. Aim: to consider the prospects of using maglev transport technology in the space of the member countries of the Eurasian Economic Union. Materials and methods: the research methodology is based on the analysis of logistics methods, socio-economic analysis, as well as macroeconomic methods. The information base of the study is based on official legal and methodological information of the authorities of the Russian Federation and the Eurasian Economic Commission. Results: as a result of the study, the niche of maglev transport in the unified integrated transport system of the Eurasian Economic Union is determined, the expected effects of the introduction of maglev transport are described at a qualitative level. Conclusion: the study confirms that innovative logistics solutions are needed in modern conditions for the development of international transport corridors. The proposed neuro-linguistic approach substantiates the necessity and effectiveness of the introduction of maglev transport into a unified integrated transport system of the Eurasian Economic Union as its integral element.
