Abstract: Abstract Preferences and transport behavior of the population are a fundamental aspect of research in public transport. Identifying the basic postulates of transport, the factors determining the specific behavior of transport and modal split allow to analyze the differences between the groups singled passengers and to prepare better offer of an urban transport. In Poland, still in many cities urban transport research is conducted ad hoc, in a situation when you need to carry out specific investment projects. Meanwhile, transportation demand and preferences and behavior of the inhabitants should be carried out regularly every 2 years, not less than 5 years. In Gdansk, transportation preferences and travel behavior of residents of Gdansk is carried out every 5 years as part of the Complex Traffic Survey (CTS). The objective of this article is to present and compare the results of CTS conducted in 2009 and 2016. The basic of the analysis is the thesis that the preferences and transport behavior of Gdansk residents have changed.
