     Gross Value Added (GVA) under section H «Transport, warehousing, postal and courier activities» is used to calculate the gross domestic product. Therefore, in order to better characterize transport as a sector of the economy, we propose to monitor commercial freight and passenger transportation performed by all types of public transport as part of SDG 9.1.2 monitoring. As part of the monitoring of SDG 9.1.2, it is necessary to monitor commercial passenger transportation, as passenger transportation by private vehicles is not included in the GVA calculation.

A country's economy as a whole is defined in terms of institutional units. It includes all institutional units that are resident in the economic territory of the country. Therefore, in the framework of monitoring SDG 9.1.2, we propose to monitor commercial freight and passenger transportation performed by resident organizations of the republic. We propose to monitor two indicators: cargo turnover in ton-kilometres and passenger turnover in passenger-kilometres. Cargo turnover and passenger turnover are qualitative indicators characterizing not only the volume of transported cargo and passengers, but also the distance of their transportation.
