The article presents a method for assessing the competitiveness of options for the directions of the projected railway at the pre-project stage. The first stage of the method involves the formation of an initial set of alternatives to directions using graph theory. The proposed approach to the formation of options for directions guarantees the consideration of all possible options for connecting the reference points defined by the design assignment. The second stage deals with the formation of an acceptable set of these alternatives using the SWOT analysis, method the use of which allows both quantitatively and qualitatively to assess the impact of internal and external environmental factors on the design object, that is, to take into account the weaknesses and strengths of each direction option, opportunities and threats of the external environment. The fourth stage of the considered method involves the determination of the integrated indicators of economic efficiency recommended for further design options for the direction of the railway.
