“…In general, it should be stated that the term of justness is very relative and vague, more philosophical than economic [30]. However, justice is being sought in many decisions of the public sector, including in the urban public transport, especially in decisions related to entitlements to concessionary and free travelling.…”

The paper presents possible models of electric buses purchase financing, taking into account purchase prices higher now than in the case of traditional buses. During the research, the solutions used on several continents and in many countries were analysed, including the USA, China and many European countries. The qualitative research methods were used, focusing less on the describing and dimensioning the current state and more on creating and presenting theories and the implementation proposals themselves. As a result, it also allowed to include issues related to applicability and implications of formulated solutions for managerial practice.

“…The deployment of low-floor and energy-efficient vehicles in urban public transport will not only increase the accessibility of urban public transport for disabled passengers, as well as passenger comfort and time savings, but it will also reduce energy consumption and the related costs. The condition for supporting the renewal of vehicles in urban public transport is the existence of a comprehensive strategic plan for sustainable development of transport in individual cities (transport master plan, plans of sustainable urban mobility) and implementation of measures to ensure the preference of urban public transport on the routes for which they will be designed and the building of Integrated Transport Systems [6][7][8].…”

Diesel is the most used fuel for buses and other urban transport vehicles in European countries. This paper deals with impacts on emissions production from the operation of the urban public transport fleet after its renewal. To what extent can the renewal of the urban public transport fleet in the city of Žilina contribute to increasing environmental sustainability in the way of reducing air pollution? The vehicle fleet change has partially consisted of vehicle traction system transition-diesel buses were substituted by hybrid driven (HEV) and electric driven buses (BEV). How can the direct and indirect emissions from the operation of vehicles be calculated? These were the posed research questions. The research aimed to propose a methodology for the calculation of direct and indirect emissions. Indirect emissions values (WtT—Well-to-Tank) for different types of fuels and tractions were obtained based on regression functions. These WtT emission factors together with the existing TtW (Tank-to-Wheels) emission factors (direct emissions) can be used for the assessment of environmental impacts of specific types of vehicles concerning energy source, fuel, or powertrain and type of operation. Direct pollutants such as CO, NOx and PM were calculated with the use of simulation methodology of HBEFA (Handbook of Emission Factors for Road Transport) software. The calculated CO2 savings for the period 2019–2023 about fleet renewal in absolute terms are EUR 1.3 million tons compared to the operation of the original fleet while maintaining the same driving performance. The renewal of the vehicle fleet secured by vehicle traction transition can be a way to reduce the energy intensity and environmental impacts of public transport in Žilina.

The number of shipments is growing every year, and as a result, new transport companies arise. The increase in competition requires from entrepreneurs to apply solutions increasing the level of services provided in order to best satisfy the needs of the customers. In this aspect, minimizing the time of deliveries is extremely important, and it can be achieved, for example, by implementing the cross-docking method. It consists in consolidation of cargo from different shipment locations that is delivered in the same direction. The main feature of the above method is to keep the labor intensity of operations and the interference in the cargo to the minimum. The purpose of this article is to present a research on a logistic operator working based on a cross-docking warehouse with a capacity significantly lower than the average daily quantity of shipments handled. This requires both effective management of the available space and minimizing the time spent on manipulation activities. Therefore, it is important to know the expected number of parcels that are planned to be received and shipped on a given day in order to coordinate the work in the warehouse. It is possible to estimate it by using mathematical methods of forecasting. One of them - the multiple regression - is presented in this article. The calculations were made on the basis of collected empirical observations concerning orders for pallet spaces placed by customers. Such a forecast allows for improvement of the processes of planning and management of the possessed resources. It allows to adjust the number of warehouse workers or vehicles necessary for internal transport to the expected needs. Ultimately, it may translate into more efficient functioning not only of the surveyed branch, but also of the whole network.
