The paper presents a brief review of some aspects of existing theoretical and empirical research on transportation and transport networks development problems. Despite the fact that in general this direction is well developed in the research literature, in practice some issues require more detailed consideration, in particular, approaches to modeling the transportation of various goods over a multilayer network, representation of transportation and other costs, setting the criteria of optimality of network development. In addition, this paper considers cost functions and variables determining them, the influence of borders on the transport system, optimal routing and its paradoxes.
