The progress of work on the creation of an "intelligent transport system" in Kazakhstan, the
development and modernization of the road industry will be reported. The economic and social effectiveness of
several transport corridors and new projects were analyzed. Transport corridors of foreign countries, methods of
providing logistics services were presented.
In his address, the head of state paid special attention to the issues of digitalization of all spheres of life
of the population, including the transport sector of Kazakhstan. Currently, the Ministry of investment and
development of the Republic of Kazakhstan is working on the creation of an "intelligent transport system" within
the framework of the state program «Digital Kazakhstan» (ITS). ITS goal is to systematically integrate transport
infrastructure, transport devices and users with modern information and communication technologies aimed at
improving the safety and efficiency of the transport process.
The concept will include 11 components in ITS. One of them is a special automated measuring
instruments (UAVs), which are installed in the main automobile corridors.
This device is designed to measure moving vehicles without contact and eliminate unjustified stops.
This year, it is planned to put into operation 10 units of RSPP, and by 2020 it is planned to increase their number
to 46 units. It is also planned to introduce a traffic management system that will inform drivers about the
situation on the roads, a system for forecasting and analyzing climatic conditions, which is carried out through a
network of weather stations along the roads, a network of video monitoring and special video cameras for
detecting traffic violations, toll road systems that cover the cost of maintenance of the national road network, etc.
They will be introduced in stages until 2021. The implementation of this project will reduce road
deaths, increase the volume of transit traffic and the speed of logistics services, fully cover the main highways
with measuring instruments and create favorable conditions for drivers on the roads. Such systems are already
operating in South Korea, Japan, Australia, Europe and the United States.
