A specific scientific issue supporting scientific problem solving. The purpose of the article is to give a qualitative and quantitative assessment to the main parameters of the “Safe and high-quality road network” national project implementation in 2019, to identify risks and problems of the national project implementation and to identify improvement areas for 2020 and beyond. Materials employed (informational background), research methods. To achieve the goal in view, such scientific methods as economic, statistical and comparative analysis, generalization and system analysis and monographic method were used. Rosstat, the RF Accounts Chamber and Internet sources data were used in the research. Key research results (scientific problem solution), scope of application. In the course of the research, problems in Russia in the field of transport (road infrastructure) have been revealed. The main problems and risks of the “Safe and high-quality road network” national project implementation in 2019 are identified.
