The Share of Pedestrian Traffic in the City Center as a Determinant of the Goals of Sustainable Mobility on the Example of Świętojańska Street in Gdynia

The article presents the results of traffic research on Świętojańska Street in Gdynia. The subject of the research was considered significant due to the benefits resulting from changes in the ways of travel (especially in cities) and the increase in the share of sustainable tourism, in particular in the case of pedestrian travel, observed in many European Union cities. The research shows that the share of pedestrian traffic in the center of Gdynia is higher than the average for this city, but at the same time the largest share in travel in this area has passenger cars. Such a division of transport tasks should be considered disadvantageous from the point of view of the goals of sustainable mobility. The article mainly used own research carried out using the observation method within the Civitas Dynamo program, as well as the literature of the subject (articles) and research reports.
