Abstract

In the area of transport infrastructure risks, infrastructure is inspected for safety. It is an element of transport safety management based on risk management and forms part of preventative activities and measures. As regards tram infrastructure which is a component of urban transport infrastructure, there are potential collisions with cars, cyclists and pedestrians. Data from Gdansk Buses and Trams (GAiT) shows that between 2012 and 2016 on average there were about 650 incidents involving trams (collisions and accidents). The objective of inspection will be to identify sources of hazards which may lead to tram accidents or indirectly when tram infrastructure may contribute to accidents not involving trams. The objective of the work is to identify the risks to urban public transport operation with a special focus on trams and to formulate recommendations on how to improve its quality and safety.
