The issues of optimizing road cargo flow of the transport and logistics cluster (TLC) of a port metropolis, for example, St. Petersburg are regarded. The need to clear the central part of the city of warehouses and freight lines, to transfer them to the ring roads area is highlighted. Being the hub of the international transport corridor (ITC), St. Petersburg requires the implementation of "Foreland-Hinterland" and "Hub-and-Spoke" logistics concepts. Special emphasis is placed on the need to optimize the allocation of traffic flows and the possibility of solving this issue in the GIS ArcGIS environment. The issue of justification of withdrawing the routes of the cargo flows from the city center to the ring roads is solved quantitatively.
