Transformation of settlement systems, consolidation of existing cities to the level of agglomerations, conurbations and megalopolises require a qualitative change in the transport system. Today Moscow and the Moscow region are in the stage of active development and interaction. The most important issue is to ensure transport connectivity and territory accessibility. The high cost of infrastructure projects and their duration require high-quality justification of decisions to be made. This publication discusses the use of the theory of graphs in the development of Light-Rail-Transit (LRT) systems, which are planned to be used as an element of the new unified transport system of Moscow agglomeration. The materials for the article are data on the existing and planned development of Moscow region settlements, the basis for calculations is the mathematical apparatus of the theory of graphs. The result of the work is represented by recommendations on the use of the theory of graphs for the purposes of substantiation of Moscow region transport system development, as well as main areas for continuing research were determined.

“…Several elements make up the functional dimension of the polycentric urban region. The first involves setting the boundaries of this type of space, which is most often delimited by a collection of cities in which the travel time between them is in the range of 1 to 1.5 hours travel time (Kwon and Seo, 2018). The second element is the coherence of connections within a polycentric urban region, which may take the form of infrastructural, economic, political, educational, business services, etc.…”

The main topic of the paper refers to the issues of economic transition in regions. The research question is to determine the nature of current development processes in regions lagging behind, in coal regions in particular. The main goal of the article is to present selected modern concepts indicating the paths of the effective reorientation of development processes of such regions, along with their application into the policy framework for the coal regions’ transition. Methodically, the paper is based on a desk research and statistical analysis of time series covering GDP dynamics and job growth for NUTS3 regions in the European Union (EU). The main findings of the research indicate the significant scale of the economic challenges of coal regions in terms of their low productivity measured by the trade-off between the growth of GDP and the increase in the number of jobs, as well as the need to define a complex policy framework which ‘mixes’ a sectoral and territorial approach to achieve an effective coal regions’ transition

“…Liu et al [40] use the intercity transportation network between major cities in China to measure the urban polycentricity. In the study of exploring the effect of polycentricity on urban economic performance, Kwon and Seo [41] employ traffic flow data to detect urban polycentricity in Korea. Therefore, the traffic patterns in the urban regions are effective in identifying polycentric urban regions, especially with the advantages of high data availability and prompt updating.…”

With the rapid development of communication and transportation technologies, the urban area is increasingly becoming an ever more dynamic, comprehensive, and complex system. Meanwhile, functional polycentricity as a distinctive feature has been characterizing urban areas around the world. However, the spatial structure of the urban area has yet to be fully comprehended from a dynamic perspective, and understanding the spatial organization of polycentric urban regions (PUR) is crucial for issues related to urban planning, traffic control, and urban risk management. The analysis of polycentricity strongly depends on the spatial scale. In order to identify functional polycentricity at the intra-unban scale, this paper presents a traffic flow-embedded and topic modeling-based methodology framework. This framework was evaluated on real-world datasets from the Wujiang district, Suzhou, China, which contains 151,419 records of taxi trajectory data and 86,036 records of points of interest (POI) data. This paper provides a novel approach to examining urban functional polycentricity via combining urban function distribution and spatial interactions. This proposed methodology can help urban authorities better understand urban dynamics in terms of function distribution and internal connectedness and facilitate urban development in terms of urban planning and traffic control.
