Annotation: The aim of the article is to study the role of development and identify the main directions of solutions to environmental and technical problems of the Northern Sea Route in the economic activity of the Russian Federation. The article reveals the main strategic ways to promote international cooperation and highly efficient provision of national, regional economy and foreign economic activity. The article analyzes the development of the Arctic transport system, which will not only meet the needs of cargo transportation within the country, but also form a transit corridor between countries. The project of the transport system of the Northern Sea Route (hereinafter the NSR) development and its implementation, which has important geopolitical and economic importance for our country, is studied in detail. Since Russia has access to 3 oceans and 12 seas, thus connecting our country with many countries of the world, and due to the growth trend of international container shipping, there is a need to improve the technology of cargo transportation. The actual problems connected with realization of transit potential, with complicated ice conditions, shallow waters and insufficiency in hydrographic survey of the seabed structure, which do not allow the vessels to move along any routes convenient for them, are considered. The article concludes that the problems of the Northern Sea Route require new, technological solutions to reduce risks and increase the effectiveness of the NSR.
