Poptávková veřejná doprava a její využívání ve venkovském prostoru

This bachelor’s thesis examines demand-responsive public transportation in a rural context. Its aim is to identify the factors influencing the acceptance of demand-responsive transportation systems among residents of selected municipalities in the Polensko region and to assess their significance. The theoretical section defines the specifics of rural mobility and explains the operating principles, limitations, and best practices of demand-responsive transport. The practical section employs a quantitative design based on a simplified TAM2 model and the prioritization of demand-responsive transport characteristics. The results demonstrate that the strongest constructs in relation to the Intention to Use are Perceived Usefulness and Perceived Ease of Use, while the influence of Social Aspects was not demonstrated. The contribution of this work is the synthesis of all findings into a matrix of practical recommendations for public transport clients and organizers, which can serve as a basis for decision-making regarding how to configure the system.
