The domestic possibilities of institutional market access rules for public transport
Abstract
Public service for national, regional and suburban bus services will be provided until 31 December 2019, based on the current inter-city bus service contracts. There are a number of procedures and models for selecting the service providers for the following period. These are briefly described in the article. For the time being, it is expected that 7 + 7 service packages will be tendered in line with the location of the current transport regions. The servicing of the seven major packages requires several hundred buses, making it more attractive to larger operators. Smaller packages, however, are also available in all transport regions; these can be available also for SMEs. The intention of the government is that the bus and railway sub-sectors work together much more strongly, and this requires the strengthening of the role of the customer as well as the modification of the institutional system.
