The transport system represents a fundamental infrastructure network that ensures the stable functioning of the national economy. Ensuring safety in the provision of transport services is one of the priority directions of modern economic development. This research analyzes the theoretical foundations, organizational mechanisms, and practical solutions related to transport safety. The article examines, from a scientific perspective, not only the improvement of transport service quality but also the influence of the human factor on safety. In addition, it highlights the effectiveness of monitoring the technical condition of transport vehicles and implementing digital management systems. The study evaluates statistical data from international organizations and the outcomes of the transport policy of the Republic of Uzbekistan through comparative analysis. The results make it possible to identify effective strategic directions for enhancing safety within the transport infrastructure. Furthermore, the article scientifically substantiates the contribution of modern “intelligent transport systems” to improving safety. The conclusion emphasizes the necessity of an integrated approach to ensuring safety in transport services. Overall, the findings of the research serve as a foundation for developing scientific and practical recommendations aimed at improving safety management in the transport sector.
