The development of urban agglomerations as one of the most important urbanization processes in the modern world was considered. The economic expansion, as well as the increase in the motorization level in the middle of the 20th century, changed the vector of urban development from a vertical to a horizontal direction. This direction is also typical for the Belgorod region. The specificity of the development of the Belgorod suburbia is the massifs of individual residential buildings form a dense ring around the center of the region - Belgorod city. Statistical data that characterize the development of social infrastructure (general education and medical institutions), as well as transport infrastructure, were analyzed. It was revealed that in the emerging microdistricts of the suburbias, the transport, social and cultural infrastructure is not fully developed. It was shown that the reorganization of the transport infrastructure of the Belgorod suburbia should include some actions. One of them is the organization of transport interchange hubs as elements of transport infrastructure that can significantly change the current situation: to relieve roads, reduce car commuting, and provide people with the opportunity to comfortably transfer from one mode of transport to another. The organization of transport hubs will allow organizing a comfortable living environment for the population living in the agglomerated Belgorod suburban areas and reduce the load on the city's transport network.
