Abstract

Abstract The research aims to analyse the influence of selected factors on the demand for urban public transport in the Czech Republic. Urban public transport is important publicly provided service worldwide. In the Czech Republic this means public ownership of transport companies and massive subsidies from municipal budgets. In line with the literature, we tested the effects of the fares, the quality of services offered, the population´s income, car ownership, the urban population´s size and employment level. Using cointegration and regression analyses of data for 2004 to 2019, we constructed unique demand models for selected cities. Our analysis revealed a positive effect of quality, fuel price (as a cost associated with car ownership), and the urban population´s size. In contrast, unemployment and the price of fares have a negative effect on demand. The income effect depends on whether the transport company operates vehicles that cope better with traffic congestion.
捷克共和国城市公共交通需求
摘要 研究旨在分析选定因素对捷克共和国城市公共交通需求的影响。城市公共交通是全球重要的公共服务。在捷克共和国,这意味着运输公司的公有制和来自市政预算的大量补贴。根据相关文献,我们测试了票价、所提供服务的质量、居民收入、汽车拥有量、城市人口规模和就业水平等因素的影响。通过对 2004 年至 2019 年的数据进行协整和回归分析,我们为选定的城市构建了独特的需求模型。我们的分析表明,质量、燃料价格(作为与汽车所有权相关的成本)和城市人口规模具有积极影响。相比之下,失业率和票价对需求有负面影响。收入效应取决于运输公司运营的车辆是否能更好地应对交通拥堵。
