Razvoj javnega prometa v mestu New York

Pečarič, Miha (avtor), Resnik Planinc, Tatjana (mentor), Ogrin, Matej (komentor)

Diplomsko delo preučuje razvoj javnega prometa v enem izmed najgosteje poseljenih mest na svetu, New Yorku. Javni promet je skozi zgodovino vplival na razvoj in širjenje mesta. Največje spremembe so se zgodile po letu 1904, ko so odprli prvo progo podzemne železnice. Pred tem so bili v 19. stoletju priljubljeni tramvaji in omnibusi, ki so jih sčasoma zamenjali avtobusi in železnica. Železnica je omogočila širitev mesta iz središča, saj so nove proge ljudem omogočile, da živijo na robu mesta in delajo v mestnem središču. Čeprav je javni promet po prihodu avtomobilov upadal, se zaradi vse večjih prostorskih in okoljskih izzivov znova vrača v ospredje prometnih strategij mesta New York. V zaključku diplomskega dela sledi pregled trenutnega stanja javnega prometa in načrtov za prihodnost. Mesto želi z vlaganjem v javni promet povečati delež meščanov, ki to vrsto prometa uporabljajo za vsakdanjo uporabo.

This thesis examines the development of public transport in one of the world's most populous cities, New York. Throughout history, public transport has influenced the development and expansion of the city. The biggest changes took place after 1904, when the first subway line opened. Before that, trams and omnibuses were popular in the 19th century, eventually replaced by buses and rail. The railway allowed the city to expand out of the centre, as the new lines allowed people to live on the edge of the city and work in the city centre. Although public transport has declined since the advent of the car, it is once again returning to the forefront of New York City's transport strategies in the face of growing spatial and environmental challenges. The thesis concludes with an overview of the current state of public transport and plans for the future. By investing in public transport, the city aims to increase the proportion of citizens who use this mode of transport for their daily commute.
