| Title | Selection of Logistics Centres Location: Case of Russia |
| Summary | Currently Russian forwarding service development is at a comparatively low level. One of the considered priority objectives, which is defined in the Transport Strategy of Russia 2030, is a construction of logistics centres in every region of Russia. This thesis presents a new evaluation system for the logistics centre allocation and applies spatial analysis tools to near optimally allocate logistics centres on the territory of the Russian Federation. Using ArcGIS Network Analyst, the most suitable cities for logistics centres allocation are selected based on railway networks accessibility within the Russian Federation, proximity to domestic and foreign contiguous cities and regional socio-economic situation as well as infrastructure development and regional investment attractiveness. The project aims at selecting cities for allocation of logistics centres of federal importance. The policy recommendations are provided to Maksim Sokolov, Minister of Transport in Russia as of 2016. |
