Koubek Ladislav; Bachelor theses; 2025
This bachelor thesis focuses on the use of users' mobile devices for alternative charging in public transport, with an emphasis on targeting occasional passengers. It analyses solutions from domestic and foreign practice (e.g., Check-In/Check-Out, capping, Mobile Pay-As-You-Go) and evaluates their benefits and limitations from the perspective of both passengers and transport operators. Based on findings from selected foreign and Czech operations, an offer for occasional passengers is proposed that reflects modern trends in digitization and marketing in public transport.
Kosík David; Bachelor theses; 2025
The topic of the thesis is introducing the methods of capacity management as described in the Timetabling and Capacity Redesign (TTR). The goal of the TTR project is to simplify, unify and improve the European rail timetabling system. The thesis consists of an analysis of demand for capacity between the stations of Praha-Libeň and Bad Schandau, creating a capacity model and planning of the pre-arranged catalogue symmetrical periodic freight train paths on this main line.
Kyselica Michal; Bachelor theses; 2025
The topic of this paper is regional service of transport in Ilava county in Slovakia. Analytical part of the paper describes the region and its current service patterns, based on in-person passenger counting. Practical part of the paper´s goal is to design a solution for bus services in the region, as rail services are already systemic. The outcomes of the practical part are two variants of a regional bus line network based on regular connections between lines and clock-face schedulling.
Zezulya Oleksandr; Bachelor theses; 2025
This bachelor's thesis examines the competitiveness of interurban trolleybus operations as an ecological alternative to electric buses and hydrogen technologies. Based on the analysis of selected existing systems, it identifies factors of their sustainability and generalizes them. Subsequently, it proposes a new operation in a specific location between Teplice and Ústí nad Labem, considering geographical, technical, and operational conditions. The aim is to verify the feasibility and efficiency of such a system and to provide a basis for further design considerations.
Sklenář Adam; Bachelor theses; 2025
This bachelor thesis deals with the design of a zone-based timetable for the PragueBeroun railway line. The thesis analyzes the area surrounding the line and the transport connections within it. It also evaluates the current and future state of the transport infrastructure. The current and future operational concepts of the transport authorities are also analyzed. Subsequently, a new operational concept is designed. In the last part, this proposal is evaluated and compared with the official planned operational concept.
Příbrský Adam; Diploma theses; 2025
The aim of this thesis is firstly to analyse transport relations and current bus traffic concept in the area of railway Lovosice - Most. Then based on findings from the analytic part propose new operational concept of public transport buses. Lastly, proposed traffic concept will be compared to the current one from economic as well as transport.
Vávra, Rudolf; Dissertation; 2024
This dissertation addresses hierarchically segmented passenger transport Concepts in public transport, with a particular focus on zone-oriented service within monocentric networks. The primary objective of this thesis is to develop a model for the optimization of zone-oriented timetables based on transport-related and operational-economic criteria. Initially, the dissertation provides a comprehensive summary of the prevalent forms of multi-level passenger service in public transport, analysing their transportation and operational-economic characteristics, as well as their implications for railway capacity utilization. Subswquently, the study identifies and examines the key determinants influencing the positioning of zone boundary stations, which delineate the borders between adjacent agglomeration zones. The thes then conducts a rigorous analysis of the current state of research, focusing on studies that explore the optimization of timetables and operational processes from transportation and operational-economic perspectives. Additionally, it scrutinizes contemporary methods and approaches for determining the location of zone boundary stations. Following the theoretical groundwork, the dissertation introduces the proposed optimization model, detailing its formulation and practical application. As part of the validation process, the model was tested on four real-world railway lines in the Czech Republic, yielding succesful outcomes. Finally, the study concludes by articulating potential directions for future research that could further address the challenges and extend the contributions presented in this work.
Šulek Martin; Bachelor theses; 2024
The thesis deals with the creation of a new concept of urban mass transit in Pezinok and the modification of regional bus lines. The first part contains an analysis of the current mass transit system in Pezinok. The second part contains an analysis of analogous mass transit systems in Europe, relevant strategic documents, and selected sources. The general principles of how to establish mass transit lines are elaborated by the analysis. The third part presents a proposal for a new concept of public bus transportation in Pezinok, utilizing the principles previously developed.
Šrajer Štěpán; Bachelor theses; 2024
The subject of this thesis is to firstly analyse transport relations in the Strakonicko area and then to analyse the current level of traffic service of regional bus transport. On the basis of this analysis, the next step is to propose a new concept for regional bus transport in the area, which will use the principles of an integrated periodic timetable. At the end of thesis, the concept is evaluated in comparison with the current operation.
Macura Sebastian; Bachelor theses; 2024
This thesis deals with the issue of the operation of night sleeper trains in the Czech Republic and surrounding Europe. The general characteristics of this mode of transport and the possibility of its participation in the transport services of Europe are examined. The thesis responds to the development of sleeper trains in the near abroad. Furthermore, the development of sleeper connections connecting the Czech Republic with surrounding Europe is examined based on the identified demand through an adapted gravity model and analyzed boundary conditions to maximize the attractiveness of such connections. The main output of the thesis is a conceptual design of an effective operational concept of sleeping connections.
Chudomel Matěj; Bachelor theses; 2024
This thesis deals with the design of a new bus line between Jihlava and Hradec Králové. In the analytical part, an analysis of transport relations and existing transport services will be executed in the defined area. Based on this, two variants of routes will be selected, for which an operational concept will be developed taking into consideration the principles of integrated schedule. Finally, both proposed concepts will be subjected to an operational evaluation and one of the variants will be recommended for implementation.
Gregora Tomáš; Diploma theses; 2024
In this thesis, current trends in the development of settlement structures and their relationship to public space such as suburbanization and city of short distances were presented. The main factors found to support a well-functioning area were population density and the multifunctionality of urban spaces. It was demonstrated that the characteristics of spatial structures and the opportunities or obstacles to land use have varying impacts on transportation and its costs. To improve the perception of public transport in suburban areas, two alternative solutions for public transport service in the municipality of Chýně and its nearby surroundings were proposed after the model adjustment. The outcomes of travel behavior were compared between the variants and the overall benefit of the implemented measure was evaluated.
