Methodological base for the implementation of the magnetic levitation transport technology project in Russia

Aim: determine the methodological basis for forecasting social economic effect from  implementation of major infrastructure projects in world practice. To compile an individual list of evaluation criteria based on recent research about technical capabilities of magnetic levitational transport technology (MLTT) transport. Methods: statistical methods of transport industry analysis and interbranch balance method are applied. Results: the potential market for application of technology has been identified and a forecast for changing transport industry matrix has been made. Conclusion: this article is the basis for conducting a comprehensive study of the social-economic response of the MLTT project implementation in Russia and determination of optimal parameters for public-private partnership during its realization.
