Some issues of the integrated development of public transport in the Barnaul agglomeration

Abstract

The development of motor transport is the most important factor, determining the quality of life of urban population. Hence, the topic of the work is relevant. The pronounced social nature of public passenger transport should translate into the guaranteed high quality conveyance of the least affluent categories of passengers. The article studies the state and quality of passenger transport in the city of Barnaul, analyzes the operation of passenger transport organizations, and transportation payments made by the population. The article identifies the main problems of passenger transportation, including consequences of the poor-quality operation of transportation organizations in Barnaul and offers solutions towards the optimal development of the transport system. The co-authors propose to use methods, based on the driver’s observations, automatic recorders, polling methods, cross-sectional surveys or coupons, to improve the operation of transport routes.
