Abstract

Public transport is playing a bigger and bigger role in cities nowadays. The needs of users are growing and, among them, not only these connected with improving communication streams, but also those related to environmental care. A greater and greater alternative for efficient, public – although still individual – transport is the bicycle. In the article, the concept of the city bike as a successful way of complementing public transport system was presented. An analysis of the availability and usage of Szczeciński Rower Miejski (SRM) [Szczecin City Bike] in the city of Szczecin was carried out.
