Abstract

The present article is an attempt to describe the role of cars in the urban transport of inhabitants living in select European cities. It uses information obtained from research into modal split that has been conducted throughout the last 10 years. This allowed for trends of change to be revealed with reference to the cities in which research was conducted on a number of occasions throughout the aforementioned period. The role of cars in the undertaking of urban travel with regard to the Polish cities was determined on the basis of findings of complex traffic research as well as preferences and travel behaviour research. The research was conducted in select Polish cities. The factors determining the decision to undertake urban travel by car were also established.
