1. Spatial modelling of modal shift due to COVID-19Simona Šinko, Klemen Prah, Tomaž Kramberger, 2021, original scientific article Abstract: The outbreak of COVID-19 caused many changes in people's life. One of the most significant is the travel behaviour and transport mode choice. This study focus on the changes that the inhabitants of Vienna made in their travel choices because of the virus. The same research about spatial modelling the transport mode choice of commuters in Vienna was completed in 2019 and is a topic addressed in our previous work. Based on our developed methodology, this article indicates that public transport is not a dominant transport mode choice as it was before the virus outbreak.The main result of this paper is geographically defined areas of application of individual alternatives shown on the final map of modal shift in Vienna, which could provide theoretical support for policy-makers and transportation planners. For the city of Vienna, we found that the area of the city where cars are now used has increased, which certainly has a negative impact on air quality and life in the city. The advantage of the methodology is that it can also be applied to other cities in the world.

2. Model of traffic access mode and railway station choice of suburban railway system in SloveniaGregor Rak, Marjan Lep, 2014, review article Abstract: This article presents the establishment of a model of understanding the access mode and railway station choice of Slovenian passengers. Therefore, a model has been designed to predict the determination of existing decision making preferences of railway users about the access mode and railway station choice with a stated preference survey and face to face method. The target group in the survey were railway passengers in the suburban environment that use the rail for work and school purposes. The total number of respondents was 412. The survey showed that most passengers access the railway station with car (60,2%), by foot (26,2%), with public transport (bus – 8,3%) and with bike (5,3%). Average distance to the station is 4,9 km, average time of access is 10,5 min. Upon exit most passengers walk to the final destination (84,5%), use the public transport (bus – 14,1%), car (1,2%) or bike (0,2%). Average time from exit of the train to final destination is 13,1 min, average distance is 1,58 km.

3. Model approach to quality provision of public passenger transportRoman Krajnc, Drago Sever, 2010, review article Abstract: Modern approach to transportation system research is based on the system theory. System analysis is relevant. Constant transportation technique and technology development caused by the need of conformation to the new market conditions is the basis for such an approach. The model approach for resolving the problems of public passenger transport is provided in a scientific report. The model of quality of passenger transport comprises the submodels which define relevant measures for the provision of passenger transport quality. The synthesis of sub-model for adoption of quality standards, submodel of passenger demands, submodel of operation safety and security and economic submodel construct the model of quality of public passenger transport (PPT). Its evaluation has been carried out using SWOT analysis.

4. The trans European railway network : three levels of services for the passengersMilan Janić, 1996, original scientific article Abstract: The paper deals with the concept, analysis and measuring of the quality of services offered by the Trans European Railway Network (TERN). A sub-network serving the passengers travelling over the EU (European Union) and some of the non-EU regions are considered. Two sets of network attributes influencing the quality of services are analysed. One set of network physical attributes is represented by the length of the rail lines connecting specific origins and destinations of the passengers. The other set is represented by the time-based attributes used to measure the quality of services offered to the users. These are: travel speeds along particular lines (routes), and how the passenger's schedule delays depend on the train frequencies (e.g. number of trains offered on particular routes of the network in a given period of time). Considered as a common entity these attributes significantly influence the average passenger's travel time (and speed) which, together with out-of-pocket cost paid for travel, have appeared to be the most important criteria influencing the choice of transport mode.

5. High-speed rail and air passenger transport : a comparison of the operational environmental performanceMilan Janić, 2003, original scientific article Abstract: This paper presents an overview of the environmental performance of high-speedrail (HSR) and air passenger transport (APT) in the European Union (EU). This performance embraces the direct environmental burdens/emissions such as energy consumption, air pollution, noise, landtake and land use, safety and congestion. A comparison of the marginal values of particular burdens/emissions and their costs (externalities) is carried out. The results have shown that significant mitigation of the impacts and savings of costs could be achieved by substitution of air passenger transport by high-speed rail. The substitution can be carried out through competition and complementarity of operations of both modes.
