Abstract

The world rating of the ratio of automobile roads of the highest technical category and the total length of roads places Russia at the end of the first hundred. State began paying attention to the problem of developing the road-transport infrastructure only about 5 years ago, including elaboration and implementation of national and federal projects and allocation of great amounts of money for them. In conditions of finance shortage, especially on the regional level, the necessity to raise private capital to the road-transport industry becomes more and more acute. It could help build more projects, get more benefits and repay investment. The article explains the state interest in using the state-private partnership for founding and developing the road-transport infrastructure. The author identifies tools of state participation, which are used now in road-transport industry in the Russian Federation and proposes the lines of stimulating the state-private partnership development in road-transport industry. Special attention is paid to such key trends of extending forms of interaction between state and business in this sphere as setting up channels of continuous provision of information to concerned people that deals with new technologies and projects, upgrading regional legislation, elaborating programs supporting research and development in road construction, training highly-qualified personnel, etc. The development of road-transport infrastructure can improve accessibility of territories and provide access to global markets, which could foster economic and social effects.
