Interrelationships within control and management mechanisms, including transport safety management, of the transport system are evaluated based on the function-oriented approach to its decomposition. Hierarchical system’s levels, strategic development objectives, societal, information, and environmental aspects are analyzed within safety context. Classification of threats to transport system and its subsystems (objects) is suggested. The authors place special emphasis on safety culture as on a social motivation pattern, designed to develop a proactive attitude to emerging threats and risks during transportation of passengers and cargo. They differentiate emotional, cognitive, and behavioural (conative) components of safety culture and suggest their brief description regarding transportation sector. The suggested framework of proactive culture makes it possible to model hierarchical systemic interconnection of its various components, providing for transport safety coupled with overall development of transport and transportation.
