Praktyka kształtowania oferty transportowej dla komunikacji tramwajowej w aglomeracji śląskiej

Abstract

The organizer of transport in regular public transport is obliged to meet certain demands. Apart from the requirements connected with the necessity to obtain the needed permissions, one needs to organise transport in such a way so that the passengers travel in safety and hygiene, in comfortable conditions and with qualified staff. Additionally, the carrier needs to provide a timetable of a given means of transport on a given tram line and present it in public place (where it is customarily presented). The timetable formation should take into account not only the profit of the line, but also the good of the customer. The article presents the currently applied practices of the formation of tram transport offer in Upper Silesia agglomeration.
