Dear readers! We are pleased to present to you the eleventh issue of the journal in 2025. There are a lot of relevant and useful materials in the issue, which, hopefully, will not be ignored.
The article discusses the coordinated work of the Crimean port (port of Kerch and Feodosia) with a complex of inland waterways of Central Russia, including the Volga basin from Astrakhan to Tver. It is proposed to consider a scheme where Crimean ports will serve as cargo and distribution centers - hubs that will enable them to play a key role in linking the external maritime logistic flows with internal cargo transportation by water transport.
The authors have shown ways of increasing transit capacity of Russia's South and restore transport services logistics Republic of Crimea. Provides alternative routes for multimodal transportation of goods using water transport and ferry service transport streams. The necessity of reengineering of existing structures of management of water transport of the Azov-black sea basin. Proposed scientific support of this work.

One of the features in the development of international shipping is the formation of hub ports in global supply chains. Hub ports are analyzed in two aspects: both as node elements of supply chain and as elements of transport system development. Largest sea ports of the Baltic sea region are presented in the article; major tendencies of port infrastructure development are defined.
Key words. Transport, logistics, port, transport hub, hub-port, transport system, Baltic sea, Baltic region.
