[RE08] Conditions for increasing the use of public transport by households

The results of the Energy Efficiency Survey of Slovenia - REUS show that the share of Slovenian households that are ready to start using or increase their use of public transport over the next 12 months remains quite small – a trend has not significantly changed during the 2011-2019 period. The data show that almost a tenth of households are ready, while a quarter of households are considering the option, while more than two thirds are not ready to start using or to increase their use of public transport. For most households the main factor that influence the selection of their mode of transport is “the time spent”. Better connections and faster transport are the two most significant reasons that could encourage households to start using or increase their use of public transport.
