MODERN SOLUTIONS FOR URBAN PUBLIC COLLECTIVE TRANSPORT IN POLAND

Abstract

The implementation of intelligent transport system solutions in cities provides passengers with better comfort and safety, moreover it considers the adaptation of vehicles to the needs of people with disabilities, the distribution of tickets as well as the broader infrastructure. The progressive digitization of transport services creates the opportunity to take use of the time spent traveling. Planning a smart city offering effective solutions in the field of urban mobility is one of the main problems of urban areas. The development of electromobility should contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and increasing the share of alternative fuels in public transport. Through a system of incentives for residents to cycle and walk, local governments create their mobility. The aim of the study is to present current solutions in public transport used in Polish cities. The empirical material based on the survey allows for a comprehensive look at the development of urban public transport.
