PLANNING TRANSPORT NETWORKS AND IMPROVING TRANSPORT INFRASTRUCTURE IN HISTORICAL CITIES

Abstract: This article describes the scientific and theoretical foundations for
improving the transport-engineering infrastructure of Khiva, a city included in the
UNESCO World Heritage list. Based on an urban planning-interventionist approach,
the research analyzes the balance between traffic intensity, historical landscape
stability, and environmental safety. Future growth in transport demand was predicted
using GIS (geographic information systems) interpolation and econometric modeling
methods, specifically Regression analysis and Durbin-Watson statistics. As a result of
the study, a model was substantiated to reduce environmental pollution by 15%
through administrative and infrastructural measures, including the introduction of
small and large ring roads and an intermodal system..
