Sažetak
The work will consider the significance of various public transport modes, since different methods of travel that form the transport system are interconnected. The application of the level of service in one mode influences other transport modes and changes depending on the type of travel and is divided in three groups: urban, interurban and rural travel. In considering the significance of urban public transport there are three levels of trip-end generation/attraction, with which six types of urban travel can be identified. Interurban travel is presented through two main transport modes, rail and bus. Apart from business trips, air travel is relatively insignificant, primarily because of the prices and small distances. In rural areas, characterized by low population density, there is the problem of travelling of the elderly people, as well as those without cars, as the difficulty of providing economic public transport services has increased because the number of carried passengers is small. This results in the reduction in mobility and the quality of life. Attempts have been made to improve the standard of provision of public transport services by introducing unconventional transport means.
