Abstract

The transportation sector continues to play a vital role in Russia’s socioeconomic development, both in terms of fostering trade and freight transportation and in ensuring territorial connectivity, realizing agglomeration effects, promoting labor mobility, and developing tourism destinations. At the end of 2025, during a speech at the “Transport of Russia†forum, Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin noted that the transportation sector’s contribution to Russia’s GDP by year-end could reach about 6% (over Rb13 trillion), and the government will continue large-scale investments in transportation development. Thus, the relevant investments could amount to nearly Rb6 trillion overthree years
