CURRENT STATE OF PASSENGER TRANSPORTATION ORGANIZATION IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES

This article examines the current state of passenger transportation organization in foreign countries within the framework of an IMRAD-based study. The research focuses on the main trends, structural features, and current challenges observed in international passenger transport systems. Special attention is given to the growing role of multimodal integration, digitalization, sustainability, and service quality in the organization of passenger mobility. The study is based on qualitative, comparative, and descriptive analysis of secondary sources, including transport policy reports, international reviews, and analytical materials. The results show that many foreign countries are actively modernizing their passenger transportation systems through integrated networks, electronic ticketing, real-time information services, environmentally friendly vehicles, and coordinated transport management. At the same time, several persistent problems remain, including congestion, unequal regional accessibility, financial pressure, overcrowding, and infrastructure limitations. The discussion highlights that successful passenger transportation depends not only on physical infrastructure but also on effective governance, institutional coordination, and long-term planning. The article concludes that foreign experience offers important practical and strategic lessons for improving passenger transport systems in other national contexts.
