Modern prospects for the port infrastructure development of the Northern Sea Route

Abstract

The current development stage of the Northern Sea Route is associated with the active port infrastructure development and an increase in cargo traffic. This development dynamics is attributed to national strategic priorities and targeted funding of projects. In this connection, administrative regulation and regulatory lawmaking are actively developing. One of the difficulties in implementing infrastructure projects in the Arctic region is related to the trend of permafrost soil degradation. The system of geocryological monitoring of the Arctic allows the state of the permafrost zone to be taken into account when implementing projects.
