Assessment of the indirect economic effect of road traffic management during the construction of the Soyuz microdistrict in the Irkutsk city plan

The article examines the problems of economic losses associated with the impact of multistorey buildings on the adjacent street and road network. A general assessment of the current state of the considered issues is given both in Russia and abroad. The works and solutions to the problem under consideration are given in well-known publications and manuals. The research results of the Soyuz microdistrict, located in the Irkutsk city plan, are proposed. Its generating capacity, the proportion of visitors arriving by private road transport, its average occupancy and duration of parking are estimated. Special attention is paid to calculating the coefficients of daily unevenness, which show the uneven distribution of transport demand to the territory under consideration. A theoretical aspect of assessing transport demand is proposed, consisting of the generating capacity of multi-storey residential buildings, its distribution in the time aspect and the total intensity of individual motor transport. The calculation of the time losses of road users at the powering intersection of the Soyuz microrail was performed. Based on economic criteria expressed through an assessment of traffic delays, an assessment of the indirect economic effect is given in the absence of traffic management measures at the intersection in question. Ways to reduce the loss of time by individual-use road transport through measures to improve the efficiency of traffic management in the zone of influence of the Soyuz microdistrict are considered.
