Abstract: The article presents selected methods for defining indicators for transport infrastructure assessment in the context of logistics service provision. It is pointed out that the basis for formulating various performance indicators for a system, including the transport system, should be a defined set of goals and tasks that the system is intended to achieve. Selected indicators can be used in analytical work concerning transport co-modality. The indicators are divided into three groups: indicators for assessing the share of transport work of different transport branches in individual types of transport, synthetic indicators of transport network accessibility, and indicators for assessing transport infrastructure in the context of its co-modality.1. INTRODUCTION
In its general sense, efficiency is a relatively broad concept, reflecting appropriate relationships between effects, goals, inputs, and costs in both structural and dynamic terms [4], [6], [9]. Efficiency is therefore a systemic property that takes into account the influence of the most significant features of the system and its environment on the results of its functioning. To assess the functioning of a transport system, certain indicators are established, by means of which the degree of the system’s adaptation to fulfilling its assigned functions is expressed.
The basis for formulating various efficiency indicators for the transport system is a defined set of goals and tasks that the system is to realize.
A fundamental condition for assessing transport infrastructure is the establishment of indicators or a set of indicators demonstrating consistency, which will ensure the elimination of conflicts (…)
