Launched in 2010, the so-called ‘Arab Spring’ caused an increased migration of people from both the Middle East and Africa to Europe. In the face of such a large number of refugees, the European Union announced a migration crisis. This crisis has increased the risk factor of road transport along selected European routes. The aim of this publication is to present the impact of immigrant activities on the Calais - United Kingdom route section on the assessment of the risk of cargo transportation in international distribution. The risk assessment was carried out from the point of view of enterprises providing road transport services in international distribution. The research used direct interviews conducted with the managerial staff and drivers in selected road transport companies that handle transport on the route under investigation.

Artykuł opisuje problemy związane z transportem drogowym jako jednym z najbardziej elastycznych sposobów transportu oraz prezentuje zakres zmian, które miały miejsce w minionych latach. Po zwiększeniu liczby pojazdów w 1930 roku II wojna światowa zatrzymała rozwój tego sektora. Jego odbudowę rozpoczęto w 1945 roku, gdy poczyniono inwestycje w fabryki samochodów. Na przełomie lat osiemdziesiątych i dziewięćdziesiątych nastąpiły liczne zmiany w tej dziedzinie, będące odzwierciedleniem przede wszystkim dynamicznego rozwoju usług transportu prywatnego. Przystąpienie Polski do Unii Europejskiej stanowiło ożywczy impuls dla dalszego rozwoju transportu drogowego, jednak obecnie stan istniejącej infrastruktury nie pozwala na całościowy rozwój potencjału tego rodzaju transportu.

The article describes issues related to road transport as the one of the most flexible modes of transport, and especially the changes that have taken place over the years. After an increase in the number of vehicles in the 1930s’, World War II stopped the development of this sector. Its reconstruction began in 1945, when investments in the cars’ factories were made. At the turn of the 1980s’ and 90s’ there have been numerous changes in this sphere, reflecting mainly the dynamic development of private transport services. Poland’s accession to the European Union were invigorating boost in further expansion of road transport, however, the current infrastructure does not allow the full development of the potential of this type of transport.

An essential factor in speeding up an economy’s development and raising its competitiveness is improving the condition of its transport infrastructure, which should be modernised and expanded to strengthen the social and economic cohesion of the country. The current development level and technical condition of Poland’s transport infrastructure is a main barrier to economic growth and modernisation of the country and is hampering the country’s integration with the EU in the area of transport policy. The article presents the condition and development prospects for Poland’s transport infrastructure in the years 2000–2010 with a particular focus on road, rail and air transport. The article also shows the financial opportunities in developing the country’s transport infrastructure that have been created by EU regional policy. The deeper analysis covers the distribution and size of allocations predicted for the transport infrastructure in regional operating programmes for the years 2007–2013.

Fundamental factor for region development is, except proper localisation, natural resources, the qualified labour and suitable fiscal policy - convenient and efficient communication. Therefore, very important is to take actions to generate suitable connections between road and railway transport. On Lower Silesia trackage is strongly developed, similarly, nodal points access to the relevant routes. Because of railway regress, particularly in passenger transport, it has been created an idea to use a railway potential for develop regional and agglomeration transport. Initially, there is necessity to assess the trackage structure and analyse its potential to improve passenger transport. Obviously, it requires many analyses and general project, as well as large expenditures for new investments in railway transport.

Research background: Transport represents a dynamic element in the tourism system. In recent decades, transport has been a subject of research mainly from the point of view of the sustainability of the economic systems and the environmental aspects. Purpose of the article: This study aimed to quantify the relationships between the selected indicators of road transport development and the expenditure of tourism visitors in the selected European countries in the context of the development of their competitiveness. Methods: The road transport indicators were applied in the research trajectories: density of road (DNST), hare of road infrastructure investment (SH INF), share of motorways (SH MWY), and indicators of visitor expenditure for business (BTS), leisure (LTS), domestic (DTS) and foreign (VEFS) tourism. In the first phase of the analyses, the countries of the European part of the OECD (N = 27; period of 2010-2018) were divided into two clusters based on the development index (HDI) and the innovation index (GII) through the cluster analysis. The two groups were created - more and less developed countries. The results of the analysis of differences declare that there are differences between these groups in the DNST, SH INF, BTS, LTS, and DTS indicators. The correlation and regression analysis methods were applied to quantify the relationships between the variables. Findings & value added: The difference between the groups of the countries was also shown in the relationships between the road transport development indicators and visitor spending. In more developed countries, the relationship between the traffic indicators on BTS and DTS was significant. In less developed countries, significant relationships were identified with LST and VEFS. This finding underscores regional disparities and cautions against assuming that what policy guidelines from developed countries will be effective in less developed ones. Therefore, when designing improvement policies, it is vital to consider countries in terms of their level of development.

The article is an attempt to estimate the emissions of pollutants such as particulate matter (PM), nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulfur dioxide (SO2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) in Cracow in 2015 resulting from the solid-fuel boilers (especially coal fired boilers) and fireplaces and emissions resulting from the operation of road vehicles. Estimated emissions of pollutants were compared with the emissions of plants of significant nuisance to air quality in Cracow. Conclusions have been drawn about the directions of Cracow authority policy in environmental protection.

Transport is considered one of the basic aspects of the movement of people, raw materials as well as goods from the place of origin to the destination. Moreover, in the wider sense, transport includes economic bodies that aim to achieve goals similar to those of businesses that produce a wide range of goods required by customers. Hence, the efficient operations of basic branches of the transportation system determine the entire national economy. Furthermore, transport is considered a basic factor of development, both on the macro- and microeconomic scales. The aim of the paper is to attempt the assessment of the road transport in Poland as an important element of macro logistics. Furthermore, one of the aims of the investigation was the explanation of its influence on the level of economic development in Poland. As the source of information, the research used the data drawn from the Central Statistical Office of Poland. The main methods implemented in this study were both classic and order synthetic measure construction. Further, these measures were used in econometric models as well as for the prediction of their values. The main result of the analysis indicates that the development level of the widely considered infrastructure is strictly correlated with the socio-economic development of particular voivodships. The study on the level of road transport development can lead to a better understanding of the socio-economic development of particular areas of Poland as well as the more efficient use of the support funds.

Safety is one of the basic psychological needs, and at the same time, a state that gives a sense of confidence and a guarantee of its preservation and a chance for self-improvement. This is a situation characterized by the lack of risk of losing something that is particularly important for a person. In reference to a child, it acquires a unique meaning, because it is an important element of a positively created educational environment. Ensuring safety and safe living conditions is the responsibility of the family, school, social organizations and institutions. This involves also a road traffic safety, as every child is a road user. Undertaking research in this area, not only allows to get to know the state of affairs, but also indicates the directions of work with children, which will translate into an increase in their safety..

The aim of the publication is to analyze and assess changes that have taken place in the Polish transport since the early 1990s. They involved the transport industry in the field of its structure and ownership, leading to the increase of the number of companies in every branch of transport as well as the development of the private sector. They were also connected with the role of transport in the Polish economy and the structure of haulage. Due to a weaker dynamics of development than in other branches and the change of the structure of the size of businesses, the employment in transport decreased and its position measured as a share in the WDB weakened. The process of integration and liberalization of the transport market, against predictions, did not weaken the dynamics of Polish transport companies, especially those involved in road transport. Road transport became the most important branch of the business with a market share of 70% of the transport of goods. Road transport companies also took full advantage of the possibilities arising from the membership in the uniform market of the European Union

The article refers to the challenges aimed at identifying decisions that translate into optimization in the TFL industry, on the example of selected activities of transport companies. Awareness of high competitiveness should influence the well-thought-out directions of development of business owners and managerial staff in the context of creating the company's distinguishing features. They should be viewed on a global scale in order to increase profit and optimize costs. The article shows a direct connection between optimal patterns of action and the undertaken non-intuitive and innovative activities with the possible development of market niches. The publication draws attention to the multi-threaded and above-standard strategies chosen by selected road transport employers.

Przedsiębiorstwo transportowe, tak jak każda jednostka gospodarcza, zobowiązane jest do ponoszenia obciążeń podatkowych. Opodatkowanie to niezwykle złożone zjawisko społeczne, gospodarcze, a także polityczno-ustrojowe i prawne, wymagające rozpatrywania z rozmaitych punktów widzenia. Struktura systemu podatkowego może zmieniać rzeczywiste decyzje dotyczące wielkości inwestycji, rodzaju aktywów, które są przedmiotem inwestowania, a także wyboru miejsca lokalizacji inwestycji. Przedsiębiorstwa transportowe poza standardowymi obciążeniami publiczno-prawnymi, które ponosi większość jednostek gospodarczych zobowiązane są do ponoszenia podatku od środków transportowych. Celem niniejszego artykułu była analiza, w jakim stopniu podatek ten wpływa na decyzje inwestycyjne przedsiębiorstw transportowych w województwie zachodniopomorskim. Na potrzeby badania założono następującą hipotezę badawczą: Stawki opłat drogowych i podatku od środków transportowych mogą wpływać na wzrost inwestycji w nowy tabor. Materiał badawczy obejmował dane ilościowe i jakościowe dotyczące 184 przedsiębiorstw transportowych mających swoją siedzibę w województwie zachodniopomorskim. Dobór grupy badawczej był celowy, a przeprowadzone badanie pozwoliło na zebranie danych dotyczących 26,1% jednostek spełniających założenia badania. W przeprowadzonej analizie zastosowano metody statystyki opisowej oraz analizy ekonomicznej. W przeprowadzonym badaniu nie stwierdzono związku pomiędzy liczbą samochodów użytkowanych na terenie danej gminy przez badane przedsiębiorstwa transportowe oraz stawką podatku od środków transportowych. Uzyskane wyniki wskazują, że w przypadku badanej grupy podmioty z gmin gdzie podatek był niższy nie zwiększały swojego taboru w większym stopniu niż te, w których stawki podatku były wyraźnie wyższe. Rezultaty badania pozwalają z dużym prawdopodobieństwem przyjąć, że oczekiwania dotyczące stymulacyjnego oddziaływania bodźców fiskalnych w relacji do podatku od środków transportowych nie znajdą przełożeni w praktyce przedsiębiorstw transportowych. Wobec powyższych argumentów można uznać, że założona hipoteza okazała się błędna.

A transport company, just like any other economic unit, is obliged to pay taxes. Taxation is an extremely complex social, economic, political, constitutional and legal phenomenon that requires analysis from multiple perspectives. The structure of the tax system can change the actual decisions regarding the size of the investment, the type of assets that are being invested, and the choice of location of the investment. Transport enterprises, apart from the standard statutory charges incurred by most businesses, are obliged to pay tax on means of transport. The aim of this article was to analyze the extent to which this tax affects investment decisions made by transport companies in the West Pomeranian Voivodeship. For the purpose of the study, the following hypothesis was tested: the rates of road tolls and tax on means of transport can affect investments in the new fleet. The research material included quantitative and qualitative data on 184 transport companies based in the West Pomeranian Voivodeship. The selection of the research group was targeted. The research allowed to collect data on 26.1% of units that met the research criteria. The analysis used methods of descriptive statistics and economic analysis. The results of the research showed no relation between the number of cars used in a given commune by the surveyed transport companies and the tax rate on means of transport. The results obtained prove that in the case of the study group, entities from communes where the tax was lower did not increase their fleet to a greater extent than those where the tax rates were significantly higher. The results of the study allow to assume, with high probability, that expectations regarding the stimulating effect of fiscal stimuli in relation to the tax on transport means will not be reflected in the practice of transport companies. In the light of the above arguments, the hypothesis can be assumed to be proven wrong.
