Abstract

This dissertation deals with the creation of an integrated transport system in Frýdek-Místek and its surroundings, focusing on and describing the introduction of free public transport in Frýdek – Místek. The paper studies the development of the number of passengers and fare revenues as well the background of its development. The tariff structure with its positive and negative effects is described in detail. Next to this, this dissertation compares other free public transport systems in the Czech Republic and the world. Possibilities of introducing a similar system of free public transport in other towns and cities are discussed as well. My work also deals with the creation of an integrated transport system in general and in comparison with other current integrated transport systems in the Czech Republic. Tariff and transport solutions of the integrated system in Frýdek - Místek and its surroundings are described in detail. All data are statistically processed. The calculations also include the amount of subsidies from various governments on all levels. The emphasis is primarily focused on public budgets, without rising the particular amount of subsidies. In the end, I present the possibilities of further development of the free public transportation and a deepener integration in Frýdek–Místek and its surroundings.
