Abstract: Abstract Liberalization of public transport in Poland has continued for 25 years. This process is intended to launch the competition mechanism, which in consequence will result in a decrease in prices and increase in quality of services in the long run. One of the instruments of liberalization consists in opening the market for new entities by applying the public procurement procedure. The purpose of the article is to analyze concentration level of the selected municipal transport markets in Poland. The conducted research has covered the following issues: development of market structure, behaviors of transport operators, and intensity of competition. The article also contains results of public tenders for transport services. The analysis of intensity of competition was performed on the basis of results of tenders and measurement of concentration.
