Abstract

The article is devoted to the economic and geographic characteristics of territorial differences in roadside services providing on the main roads of the Republic of Belarus of the 2015–2019. At present, the relevant issues related to the problems, organization, functioning and increasing the efficiency of roadside service facilities are widely represented in the studies of economists. However, the issue of the territorial organization of roadside service has not been practically studied in geographical science. The aim of the work is an economic and geographical analysis of spatial differences and patterns in the development of roadside services on the main roads of the Republic of Belarus and suggesting priority development areas, taking into account economic and geographical factors and identified regularities. The research provides a comparative analysis of the roadside service in the main roads and economic and geographical factors which determine the development of the roadside service network. Such factors include: traffic intensity, population of the administrative region, transport accessibility of service facilities for urban residents, level of socio-economic development of the region. The patterns of territorial differentiation of roadside services have been established, which are manifested in a high concentration of objects and services in areas with high traffic, attraction to large cities and the state border. The question of the service complexity, which is expressed in the number of roadside services types and the development of multifunctional facilities, which provide 5 or more types of services, is considered. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the fact that the research of geographical aspects of roadside services is performed for the first time in the country and international aspects of the problem, an economic and geographical typology of main roads was proposed based on the type of roadside service structure and belonging to trans-European transport corridors using the example of the Republic of Belarus. The following typology enables to determine the underdevelopment of certain types of roadside services, such as car service stations, car washes, and guarded parking lots. The value of this study lies in identifying priority directions for the development of highways roadside service based on identified road services particularities: expanding the range of roadside services on facilities territory, developing a network of secure parking lots, including for trucks, developing multifunctional service complexes, providing paid and free self-service system services.
白俄罗斯共和国道路服务结构的经济和地理分析(以高速公路为例)
本文致力于研究2015-2019年白俄罗斯共和国主要道路上提供的路边服务的地域差异的经济和地理特征。目前,路边服务设施的问题、组织、运作和提高效率等相关问题在经济学家的研究中有着广泛的代表性。然而,路边服务的地域组织问题在地理科学中尚未得到实际研究。这项工作的目的是对白俄罗斯共和国主要道路上路边服务发展的空间差异和模式进行经济和地理分析,并在考虑到经济和地理因素以及确定的规律的情况下,提出优先发展领域。本研究对主要道路的路边服务与决定路边服务网络发展的经济和地理因素进行了比较分析。这些因素包括:交通强度、行政区域人口、城市居民服务设施交通可达性、区域社会经济发展水平。路边服务的地域分化格局已经形成,表现为交通流量大、吸引大城市和国家边界的地区的对象和服务高度集中。考虑服务的复杂性问题,即路边服务种类的数目和提供5种或以上服务的多功能设施的发展。这项研究的科学新颖之处在于,路边服务的地理方面的研究是第一次在国内和国际上进行的,以白俄罗斯共和国为例,根据路边服务结构的类型,提出了主要道路的经济和地理类型,属于跨欧洲运输走廊。以下类型可以确定某些路边服务类型的欠发达程度,例如汽车服务站、洗车场和有警卫的停车场。本研究的价值在于,根据道路服务的特点,确定公路路边服务发展的优先方向:扩大设施领域的路边服务范围,发展包括卡车在内的安全停车场网络,发展多功能服务综合体,提供付费和免费的自助服务系统服务。
