Abstract. Road transport is an important branch of the national economy. This is due to many of its advantages compared to other modes of transport, primarily high mobility and the ability to deliver goods “to the doorstep”. The activities of road freight transport are carried out within two main groups. The first group is transportation carried out under contracts between business entities, the second — to meet their own technological needs of busi¬ness entities. Information on the first group contains official statistical reporting, information on the second group is missing. This situation leads to the impossibility of an objective assessment of the impact of road transport on the socio-economic development of regions, causing inadequate reactions in the systems of road transport, for example, in the areas of regulation of the structure of road transport and personnel training. This is the reason for the relevance of the work.
The aim of the work is to establish the relationship between the number of rolling stock of freight road transport and indicators of gross regional products (GRP), taking into account parts of gross regional products by industry.
As the approach used, the hypothesis is used that: the socio-economic development of the regions is impos¬sible without an efficiently functioning freight road transport; The existing official information support of the state and activity of road freight transport does not allow an objective assessment of its impact on the socio-economic development of the regions.
The methodological apparatus of the study is based on the application of the principles of system analysis, methods of mathematical statistics, in particular, correlation and regression analysis. The paper uses the official statistical information of Rosstat on road freight transportation, the number of trucks in the regions, gross regional products and parts of gross regional products by industry.
The scientific novelty of the study lies in the identified relationship between the number of trucks and gross regional products of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, as well as parts of gross regional products by industry, characterized by the establishment of general and particular relationships between economic and technical indicators. The novelty of the study is a toolkit for managing road freight transport.
The practical significance of the study lies in the creation of tools for managing the operation of road transport to regulate the structure of freight vehicles in accordance with the objectives of the development of the regions.
Directions for further research are to apply the above methodology to passenger road transport for the devel¬opment of a management system for regional transport systems.
Key words: road transport, trucks, gross regional product, road transport operation.
