Abstract

Topicality. The lack of a unified approach to the implementation of state policy in Ukraine, which regulates the activities of multimodal and intermodal transport, as well as the relevant legislative framework, emphasizes the relevance of this article.
Aim and tasks. The purpose and objectives of the state transport policy should take into account the general objective of European transport policy, which is to create conditions for the development of a high-quality transport system based on the integrated use of technical, economic and technological characteristics of certain types of transport, competition principles, taking into account economic and social impacts, as well the impact on the environment and health. Proceeding from the fact that transport policy should consist in creation of conditions for development of high-quality transport system, economic and technological characteristics of certain types of transport, principles of competition, taking into account economic and social influence, this is the main goal of the article.
Research results. The article determines which priorities should be based on the state transport policy and directions of its direction. Author's interpretation of the concepts of intermodal and multimodal transport, as well as their key differences, is provided. It has been established that in the majority of cases, the cargo owner interacts with carriers through his forwarding agent (agent) both in multimodal and intermodal traffic, and the impression is made that there is no difference between these types of traffic. Meanwhile, the relationship of the cargo owner and freight forwarder significantly differ with the relationship of the cargo owner and carrier. Public relations on transport activity in Ukraine are established by special regulations, but this is too small for effective implementation and development of multimodal and intermodal transportation in Ukraine. At the same time, general approaches to improving the legislative framework for the establishment and development of Ukraine as a sea and transit state, as well as to meet the needs of the national economy and the population in transportation, are not defined.
Conclusions. Thus, it is necessary to divide the transport policy of the state into a common transport policy, which deals with general approaches to the development of the national transport system and relates to the public relations of the state and transport enterprises and organizations and the private transport policy, which relates to the relations of business entities in the process of direct transportation. The latter is the means of regulating the development and operation of multimodal and intermodal transport, and not only in Ukraine.
