This approach allows us to estimate the ecological safety of roads in a view of the climatic and economic features of the territories (from protected areas — to very large industrial centers with a high concentration of various industrial sectors), through which the road is paved. However, the development and use of environmental-health monitoring throughout the impact of roads on the overall situation of pollution is not allocated. Our research paying attention to the fallacy of such an approach.ecological-economic systemroad transportenvironmental-health monitoringэколого-экономическая системаавтомобильные дорогиэколого-гигиенический мониторинг
