Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Object: Study of the transit potential of international road transport corridors in the Republic of Kazakhstan.Methods: General scientific methods were used: The method of the content analysis, which facilitated to organize and structure the main scientific research related to the study of the productivity of the transport sector, the role and importance of transport and logistics services; an analysis method that made it possible to assess the transit potential of Kazakhstan’s road transport corridors; a generalization method aimed at establishing the existing relationships between the considered economic objects and phenomena; a method of graphical interpretation, which made it possible to visualize the results obtained.Findings: The role of road transport in the organization and management of international transit traffic was considered, the international road transport corridors of the Republic of Kazakhstan were investigated. The volume of cargo transportation by road transport by types of transportation for the period 2016–2020 was analyzed. The volumes of exports and imports with the countries of the Eurasian Economic Union were reflected in modes of transport at the border, which shows that 20% of goods were exported from Kazakhstan with road transport, and 55% of goods were imported from the total volume of trade. A comparative analysis of the structure of the cost of road transport of goods in the Republic of Kazakhstan, the Russian Federation, the Republic of Belarus, in the EU countries was also carried out. The weak and strong points of the country's automotive industry were indicated.Conclusions: The results obtained made it possible to assess the transit potential of Kazakhstan’s road transport corridors, to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the country’s automotive industry.
