Transport market joins suppliers of carriage and consumers of these services. However, it does not always function according to the terms of classic market competition, as there are subject on the market which function on special principles and have extraordinary needs and as such require a specific treatment. Both non-government organisations (NGO) and public services which perform transport orders belong in that group. Social expectations forces these organisations to behave in a certain way, which can be a subject to either theoretical or practical research. The transport market itself and its characteristics should be studied as well, for the conditions in which the transportation orders are carried out determines their success rate and quality. A moderately balanced transport market is such a market in which all the specific objectives can be fulfilled. The point of the research on behaviour of NGOs and public services on the moderately balanced transport market is to indicate the areas of convergence and diversification of the actions of the subjects. Comparative research of behaviour shows vast similarities, nonetheless the different basis of functioning immensely differentiates their market attitude. The comparative analysis as an essential method of research also allows specification of roles, which both groups of subjects have on the moderately balanced transport market. Public services behave in a way, which is typical of dominant downmarket collective public transport operators. However, NGOs market behaviour generates value added in the form of creation a special transport offer for groups which demand public assistance. Hence, the wide spectrum of behaviour, which allows to verify hitherto existing models of economic stratification of enterprises.

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.
