The main goal of this article is to verify the functioning in practice the policy of public transport development in selected cities in Poland, through the strategic documents such as Integrated Public Transport Development Plan. The author carried out comparative analysis of documents for the selected cities in Poland, referring them to the present functioning and organization of public transport in these cities. These documents should indicate ways to integrate the various modes of transport, define measures of efficiency of the realization of transport services and the organization and functioning of public transport in cities. Moreover, they should function as strategic assumptions for the individual cities. It is important, from the point of view of the author, to examine the basic assumptions as well as the measures of efficiency of transport functioning which are based on the above plans and consequently the answer to the question- Are Integrated Public Transport Development Plans real determinant of transport policy in Polish cities?

Polycentric metropolitan area Trojmiasto in the north of Poland, by the Gdansk Bay is one of the most important urban centres for the Polish economy. The level of development of the collective public transport system is one of crucial factors for the functioning of such a vast urban area. Public services, in the form of local government departments or budget units are responsible for the organisation of transport services within the metropolis. They are coordinated by the metropolitan public transport union, MZKZG. Either municipal or private carriers are responsible for the realisation of transport services. The metropolitan transport market is dominated by public services or private businesses, while the "third sector" subjects have a relatively small participation in the market shaping process, mostly due to their lack of competiveness, connected with the non-profit activity formula. The objective function of those subjects is based on the desire to fulfil the needs of a limited social group, which are not satisfied through the default market mechanism. Hence, the NGOs organise special transport services, which do not fit within the objectives of traditional public services. Therefore, the objective function of the NGOs and the objective function of the subjects which create transport policy are convergent, however the scale of work of NGOs is far smaller, because of the fact that various constraints exists, not all of which are, however, active. The methodology of operational research allows to analyse the problem of the NGO activity in the process of shaping the Trojmiasto metropolitan transport market which is formulated in this way. Operational research on the constraints of NGO activity lead to a conclusion that the furthest constraint is the lack of periodic financing sources. The third sector organisations also point out heavy competition between them and barriers against access to the transport services feasibility studies. Therefore, the adaptation of the role of a transport policy stakeholder seems a necessary predictive value for the non-government organisations.

Over the past decade the traffic stream structure has evolved largely, in particular in the urbanised areas. The essence of the change has been that private passenger car traffic has increased to the significant detriment of public transportation. As the congestion effect is increasing significantly, the tendency described above needs to be reversed. The achievable pace of the changes is dependent on the perception of the public transportation by the society. This may be affected by the proper mobility management, creating a new mobility culture. Transformations of the transport systems due to deployment of the information technologies make changes in recognition of such systems by the environment. The article deals with an economical approach to the studies of the influence of the development of telematics on the development of the transport systems. Consideration on the creating, using and recognizing of the value potential of the transport systems is the quality tool of such research.

The conditions of the regulations concerning the functioning of the non-governmental organizations, as well as the regulators deriving from the mass transport act, determine the place and the role of the non-governmental organizations by defining their regulations liberty area and in this way determining the self-regulatory conditions. The self-regulation of the non-governmental organizations results from the essence of their activity, which is to fulfill the role of the socially useful institution, whereas the self-regulatory conditions result from the form and the character of the activity, as well as the possibility to affect among other things the organs which plan and run the mass transport. In this connection, it can be affirmed that the essence of the self-regulatory functions of the non-governmental organizations is to search such a state of the organization in which the realized actions result from the financial viability and human organizations, at the same time fitting into the areas essential from the social point of view. Referring to the financial, human and social areas, it must be stated that the essence of the self-regulation, as for the general principle that establishes the rules for the aim achievement in the conditions set by the regulation, is the separate treatment of every area. It comes down to the formation of the mechanism for achieving the main aim by achieving the partial aims in this area. Therefore, the self-regulation processes can be analyzed on the financial, social and community level. The last area is acquiring special meaning within the confines of the mass communication.

Regulator is a deliberately chosen design information, created to designate businesses to the area of freedom. Financial regulators of companies determines the rules for the operation in terms of income and expenses. Functional regulation of public transport concern social objectives. The regulating competition is a fundamental regulator in public transport. The provision of public services is possible when operator win the tender, which an essential element of the offer is the cost of realization. This causes a reversal of the philosophy of the financial optimization in calculating financial results public operators, because procedure of financial results calculation starts not from incomes but starts from costs of realization.

Transport accessibility can be considered as one of the assessment measure of transport. It should be stressed that its measurement is based on the analysis of transport infrastructure. The general thesis can be accepted which assumes that improving accessibility is conditioned by the development, expansion or modernization of transport infrastructure. In the analysis associated with the transport accessibility is the concept of accessibility of transport services and communication accessibility. It must be admitted that the analysis of these concepts is not as widely regarded in the literature as the general problem of transport accessibility. Accessibility of transport services is conditioned by an area of gravity, cohesion, transport system, number of transport points, transport suprastructure and organization of the carriage process.

Modernisation and development of public transport is an important and actual task for many Polish local governments. Very high cost of investment in tram fleet compel municipal authorities to seek solutions to the relatively least aggravating local budgets. This text presents examples of concluding long-term contracts for the provision of transport services from an internal operator. The content focuses primarily on organizational and legal aspects of the described case.

The complexity of collective public transport processes has caused the legislators of EU countries to create permanent regulations concerning the functioning of both organisers and operators of these services. Due to the fact that the organisation of public transport generally lays in the hands of either a local government unit or the minister of transport, a legal person which shall execute the operational tasks of public transport should be appointed. A management board, either in the form of budgetary unit or individual department, usually takes care of the organisation of urban public transport. Local government units are as a matter of fact non-profit organisations which function within the framework of committed budget. This rule also applies to local organisations, which work towards communities. Therefore, a cognitive problem arises - could non-government organisations carry out certain special tasks of local collective public transport and if so, to what extent and how specialised would they have to be. This issue has a significant applicatory value of the possible provision of conditional guidelines of functioning. Those, in turn, could contribute to a strategy for a diversification of roles of public life organisers precisely through the activity of NGOs.
