This study evaluates the impact of the components of the intelligent transport system of St. Petersburg on the environmental safety of the city in order to identify the most significant of them from the point of view of environmental polluting factors. In the course of analyzing the problem of insufficient provision of environmental safety of St. Petersburg in comparison with foreign cities, it was determined that the level of pollution in megacities is influenced by the presence and development of an intelligent transport system. The ecological situation in St. Petersburg is aggravated every year both in terms of the impact on the airspace and on the soil cover, which have a much longer recovery period than the atmosphere. Consequently, the object of research is an intelligent transport system and its components, and the subject is its impact on the environmental safety of St. Petersburg. In this regard, the work analyzes the components of an intelligent transport system and determines their possible direct or indirect impact on the level of pollution based on their functions. Further research of the components was carried out using an expert survey, taking into account the assessment of competence and the consistency of expert opinions. It was revealed that "smart" traffic lights, automated lighting control, traffic flow detectors and information boards have the strongest impact on ensuring the environmental safety of a metropolis. However, achieving the maximum effect is possible only with a balanced development of all components of an intelligent traffic management system. The obtained results of the study are of practical importance for the development of elements of the policy and strategy of St. Petersburg in the field of development of the transport system in relation to the indicator of environmental safety.
