Abstract

The primary aim of this paper is to analyse and estimate the volume of public passenger transport in the Northern Adriatic functional region. Its purpose is to estimate the volume of public urban traffic between the major centres of the functional region. The paper’s main hypothesis is: The establishing of functional regions should contribute towards gaining a higher level of transport interaction, within each of the regions as well as within the entire territory of Croatia. To accomplish the objective and purpose of research and prove the set hypothesis, several scientific methods were applied, in particular the analysis and synthesis method and the mathematical method. The research results are based on a computer-supported gravity model. The paper’s main finding points to the modest volume of public passenger transport between major county centres in the Northern Adriatic functional region, which is mostly based on road transport, that is, bus transport, which is neither ecologically nor economically acceptable.
