In this paper we examined the developed structural models of the road landscape and the road micro-landscape, which allows taking into account all the necessary conditions for road construction in local territories. In local areas, the complexity of road construction depends on the general characteristics inherent in a given landscape, of which the micro landscape under consideration is a component. For a comprehensive assessment of the conditions of road construction in local territories, a structural model of the road micro landscape is proposed, which is based on the landscape model. The developed structural models of the road landscape and the road micro-landscape reflect the influence of natural and techno genic factors, the value of land and other factors to determine the complexity of the construction of forest roads. Factors are defined and formulas are presented to take into account the features of the relief, climate, physical and geographical processes and phenomena, surface and groundwater, soil, vegetation, human activities when determining the cost of the construction of a forest road. The structural model of the micro landscape allows a comprehensive assessment of local territories in the survey area, to determine micro landscapes in which the complexity of road construction and the value of the territories will have minimal indicators. A correlation analysis was also carried out, which made it possible to establish the most important characteristics of the components of the geographical environment, which affect the complexity of the construction of a forest road for the main types of costs.
