Abstract: The paper deals with the issue of supporting public passenger transport and integration in order to ensure the sustainable mobility of population. It highlights the importance of public passenger transport and the reasons why the population prefers cars. The objective of the paper is to analyse public passenger transport without mutual integration of individual transport systems resulting in the fact that it is not sufficiently able to compete with individual automobile transport. It is suggested the process of public passenger transport integration as well as the design of key elements in order to increase road safety. In addition, the paper confirms the hypothesis that by supporting of public passenger transport and increasing the number of individuals transported by public passenger transport, road safety increase can be achieved.
