Valuation of transport service characteristics relevant to the establishment of fast inter-city lines in sea-borne passenger traffic

This paper analyses and evaluates major characteristics of transport services relevant to the organization of fast inter-city lines in maritime passenger transport. Service characteristics that have been subjected to research and assessment include 1) individual travel costs, 2) travel duration, 3) travel safety, 4) social costs of transport, 5) ability to create a traffic service and 6) other elements of the traffic service. Using descriptive statistics and growth matrix, the analysis reveals that the Ability to create a traffic service and Travel duration, both having direct growth rates of 75 %, will have the largest impact on the establishment of fast inter-city sea-borne lines, followed by the Social costs of transport with the direct growth rate of 68.42 %. The impact of other transport service characteristics on the organization of fast inter-city lines in maritime passenger transport is estimated as moderate.safety, 4) social costs of transport, 5) ability to create a traffic service and 6) other elements of the traffic service.
