Purpose: The paper investigates the issue of coordinating the development of interacting transport infrastructures and their operating technologies, as well as the associated planning and management. This takes into account the re-engineering of business processes for implementing non-public railway junctions within the JSC “Russian Railways” infrastructure, from the moment a client makes a request to the commissioning of new infrastructure, as well as post-investment monitoring of transportation performance.Methods: Structural and functional analysis, simulation modelling theory of a unified technological process in transport, experimental technical and working design of software and databases. Results: The functional composition, algorithms and interface solutions of the automated subsystem of the “Unified Database of Requests for the Development of Existing or Construction of New Non-Public Railway Junctions and Their Implementation into the Infrastructure of JSC “Russian Railways” (AS ETP NP.TU)” have been investigated and designed. Taking into account the hierarchy levels, the degree of centralisation of the system itself, related systems and users, the scheme of information flows and the architecture of the system have been created. They are based on the integrated interaction of automated systems operating within Russian Railways. Levelling the consequences of desynchronisation between reconstruction and technological measures and the imbalance of their parameters eliminates difficulties in promoting traffic flows and growth in operating costs. It also prevents the loss of the cargo base and the excess capacity of individual elements of transport and logistics systems. Practical significance: A unified information space has been organised for all participants in the process of reviewing applications to connect railway tracks under construction, reconstruction or restoration that are not in public use to the Russian Railways infrastructure, or to develop existing junctions, using unified data. This will ensure transparency in the consideration of applications, improve interaction between the relevant departments, and enhance the quality of management decisions.
