【 摘 要 】

Consideration was given to the problem of making decisions on public transport management. Three parties making decisions were marked out: passenger flow, transport operator and municipal authorities. Passengers choose between public and private transport evaluating the value of time. The value of time is modeled by uniform distribution. The transport operator seeks to maximize the profit by varying the public transport frequency. The decrease in the frequency decreases the passenger flow of the public transport and cost of transportation. It’s important for the municipal authorities to determine the frequency minimizing the time loss of the population and cost of transportation. The existence of the decision concerning the problems of management was proven. The numerical example characterizing the influence of the parameters on the problem solution was given.
