Abstract

The paper presents the impact of applying Regulation (EC) 1370/2007 of the European Parliament and

of the Council on public passenger transport services by rail and by road, adopted with the goal of

eliminating disparities between the transport enterprises in different Member States, on the municipal

public service Regia Autonomă de Transport Bucureti, fourth largest in size on the continent.

The assumption of the paper is that the coordinates of ensuring high-quality passengers transport services

by means of regulated competition, imposed by this Regulation, outline a “new framework-model” for the

manner of organizing and functioning of operators in this field.
