In the article the questions on legal adjusting of the shuttle system and transportation system are examined. The special attention is given to the problem of definition of such terms as «traffic infrastructure», «transportation system», «shuttle system». Questions on definition of terms by Soviet and contemporary Ukrainian scientists are examined. Particularly researches of V.K.Andreyev, G.P.Savychev, V.M.Kondratyev, N.F.Lopatyn, Ye.F.Demskyy, A.Kublyy are analysed. It is observed that there are no definitions of such terms as «traffic infrastructure», «transportation system», «shuttle system» in legislation in effect. Legislation in the field of transport law is examined. It is mentioned that for the effective functioning of the transportation system of Ukraine it is needed special conditions. Several groups of parties of transport relationships were separated. Shuttle system as system of procedures of passenger, luggage and load delivery is observed. Also the structure of traffic infrastructure of Ukraine was examined. It is given that transportation system consists of all kind of transport, parties of transport relationships, traffic connection, service objects, complex of freight terminal and storage facilities, system of control procedure and transport connection, unified information base. The ways of legislative fixing of terms («traffic infrastructure», «transportation system», «shuttle system») was offered. Comparison of transportation system and unified transportation system (term given in the Law of Ukraine «On transport») is made. The elements of substructure of different kind of transport are examined. In conclusion definitions of transportation system and shuttle system are given. Transportation system is complex of all kind of transports that intercommunicate and have their own infrastructure depending on what kind of transport it is. Shuttle system is complex of load delivery with the help of different kind of transport. On the base of given definitions of «transportation system», «shuttle system» and comparison of all three terms («traffic infrastructure», «transportation system», «shuttle system») definition of transportation system of Ukraine is made. Transportation system of Ukraine is one of the fields of national economy that has complex infrastructure, component parts of which are tied together, exist separately and intercommunicate within one defined goal.
