Different approaches to the definition "transport logistics" have been generalized. It has been justified that transport is one of the main costs in the logistics system. The categorical apparatus of transport logistics has been presented, namely, the essence of such categories has been revealed: general function, purpose, task (creation of transport systems; joint planning of transport processes on different types of transport; ensuring technological unity of transport-warehouse process; coordination of transport and production processes; choice of vehicle type; choice of vehicle type; ensuring technological unity of the transport process; determining a rational delivery route; eliminating the purpose conflict, reducing transportation costs; and goals of increasing warehouse costs). The functions of transport logistics have beensuggested, in particular: system-forming, integrating, regulating, resultant, reproducing. The factors that led to the allocation of transportation into a separate functional area of logistics have been characterized. These factors include a large proportion of transportation costs in total logistics costs; impossibility of organization and existence of material flow without transportation. Transport-logistic systems have been classified by types: delivery, service, transport. It has been determined that transport logistics has been linked with other logistics systems by such elements as warehouses and inventory. Nine groups of global problems of transport logistics in Ukraine have been identified, including: financial, technical, technological, information, economic, international, customs, environmental, labor. The main directions of overcoming financial, technical, technological, information, economic, international, customs, environmental and labor problems have been formulated. It has been proposed to determine the capacity of the transport services market of a certain region as the sum of volumes transport services provided in a certain region by local transport enterprises; provided by transport companies in other regions; provided by own vehicles of nontransport enterprises, population, etc.; transport services, that are not provided by carriers due to lack of transport capacity.

It is proved that a mandatory infrastructure elementfor international transport corridors, as well as for any large enterprise, is the availability of logistics complexes (warehouse). The expediency construction of logistics complexes with the help of modern metal structures and sandwich panels has been proved. The concepts of "logistics complex", "distribution center" and "logistics center" are analyzed. Classification of logistics centers by functional purpose and types of the most popular fast-growing logistics complexes by classes are given. Types of production processes in construction (design with the latest standards; professional approach combined with years of experience and availability of advanced construction technologies, modern equipment and advanced equipment; warranty obligations; free consultations) with management functions are characterized. It is substantiated project management system for the construction of logistics complexes, which takes into account the management functions (planning, organization, motivation, control) and includes such estimation indicators as construction costs and optimal location of the complex (by the criterion of minimum logistics costs). The logistics complex is characterized by following criteria: main purpose; localization factor; warehouse processing conditions of inventories; stored goods; degree of ownership. It is suggested to calculate the optimal localization of logistics complex using the coordinate method.

The monograph examines the theoretical, methodological and practical aspects of socio-economic development of cities in the context of decentralization. Theoretical and methodological bases of providing and forming institutional bases of social and economic development of cities are substantiated. Considerable attention is paid to identifying priority areas and ways to increase citizen participation in urban development. The strategic directions of formation of the model of sustainable social and economic development of cities are determined. For research and teaching staff, heads of state executive and local governments and specialists dealing with decentralization and socio-economic development of communities, graduate students, students majoring in 073 "Management", 281 "Public Administration", 051 "Economics", 081 "Law".
