Цель данного исследования. Изучить, проанализировать и понять, будет ли легкий железнодорожный транспорт (LRT) эффективным в Алматы. Алматы самый большой город в Казахстане. Для больших городов необходим хороший общественный транспорт, но современный общественный транспорт Алматы не является эффективным из-за пробок. Город нуждается в сочетании хороших вариантов общественного транспорта.Методология. В современных исследованиях применяется сочетание качественного (например, SWOT-анализ) и количественного методов. Данные были собраны с использованием валидного и надежного вопросника, состоящего из различных типов вопросов из различных ресурсов и проанализированы с использованием Excel.Оригинальность / ценность исследования. Строительство LRT занимает меньше времени, чем расширение метро. Кроме того, в местных геологических условиях (город расположен в девятиточечной сейсмической зоне), LRT удобнее, чем метро. Ожидается, что улучшение системы общественного транспорта за счет введения LRT постепенно заменит частный транспорт населения общественным транспортом.Результаты этого исследования – помогут администрации г. Алматы убедиться в важности LRT на уровне политики и принятия решений для достижения логического перехода к экологически чистым вариантам транспорта, таким как LRT.

The purpose of this research. Is to explore, analyze and suggest whether Light Rail Transit (LRT) will be effective in Almaty. Almaty is the biggest city in Kazakhstan. Good public transport is essential in big cities but the current public transport of Almaty is failing due to traffic jam. The city needs a combination of good public transport options.Methodology. Current research applies qualitative methods including SWOT analysis. For this, data was collected using a questionnaire followed by analysis of data in excel.Originality / value of the research. The construction of LRT will take less time compared to extension of metro. Also, under the local geological conditions (the city is located in a zone of nine-point seismicity), LRT is much more suitable than the metro. With the introduction of LRT, it is expected that with the availability of improved public transport system, people will gradually change the usage of their private vehicles to public transport.The findings of this study. Will facilitate Almaty city authority to be convinced about the importance of LRT at the policy and decision making level to achieve modal shift to environment friendly transport options such as LRT.
