Abstract The article deals with the theoretical position of the newly created environment for the functioning of transport and logistic services. The main purpose is to research the formation and functioning of multimodal transport and logistic hubs (Multihub). There were considered the practical issues connected with the realization of big investment projects of logistic infrastructure development that are inclined to local and international transport corridor. There are suggested the possible ways to place Multihubs in promising «points of increase» which are planned to be at the contact points of the peripheral Samara agglomeration-conurbation suburban belt with local rural settlement systems in order to include the Samara gubernia in the structure of the currently planned international transport corridors Europe - America and the Arctic – Southwestern Asia. The author of this article was tasked to explain the principles of phased development for the near, medium and long-term perspective of Volga region transport and communication framework. Currently, there are strong centripetal trends of movement from rural settlement systems to subcentres of Samara agglomeration. The developed approach contributes to the development of a multipolar multifunctional region structure. It will regulate the multidimensional field of social and functional spatial processes will provide conditions to increase the consumer and investment territory attractiveness that provide the effective use of land and socialization of the urban community.
