Abstract: | The growth of transport in big cities often leads in extreme cases to jams and gridlock, and this trend is gradually becoming more frequent in smaller cities such as Zlín. Some of possible solutions to these issues involve not only improvement of the technical aspects of infrastructure but also change of human behaviour. A more frequent use of public transport is one of possible solutions. Nevertheless, this will be possible only if city inhabitants have better environment awareness. This article reports on research conducted in Zlín in 2007 and focused on various attitudes of inhabitants in the Zlín agglomeration to public and individual transport. The results do not provide grounds for optimism: most people do not have good environment awareness, their priority being rather their own convenience in the use of the Zlín transport system. | ||||||||||
