Regional Classification of Serbian Railway Transport System Through Efficient Synthetic Indicator
Journal Title: Mechatronics and Intelligent Transportation Systems - Year 2023, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
The railway transport system is one of the most important elements in the development of the economy and the social space of any area. The main objective of the study is to analyse the regional differentiation in railway development in Serbia with causal interference. The research has been conducted based on secondary data collected from multiple sources, and the existing synthetic Indicator was applied to classify eight states based on their railway infrastructural status. An alternative synthetic Indicator approach has been proposed and found to be more efficient than the existing synthetic Indicator. The causality of such unequal development has been analysed through a correlation test by defining the composite infrastructure index. The analysis revealed that railway infrastructure significantly influences Serbia's economic and social development. The service area of railway infrastructure indicates the potential zone for future growth.
