Responsible authorities
Organization :
The Warsaw Transport Authority (ZTM) is a budgetary unit of the Capital City of Warsaw. Established in 1992, it has set up new standards in Poland by separating organization and controlling of PT services from the operational tasks. ZTM is responsible for selling and controlling tickets, too. Today, Warsaw Transport Authority has contracts with 10 operators.
Due to its legal competences, it organizes local public transport inside of the Warsaw city borders. Furthermore, ZTM organizes suburb lines in the metropolitan area, according to individual contracts with other municipalities. They have to participate in the costs of the suburb lines.
