When striving to develop towards sustainability, reducing private car use is a crucial factor. The most convenient alternative is to replace the private car with public transport. Fast public transport types, such as trains, have large catchment areas, thus walking to the station can be time consuming and increases door-to-door travel time compared with the private car. An alternative to this is bike-and-ride, i.e. cycling to the transit station and continuing with public transport. This study aims to find ways to increase public transport use, focusing on cycling between the home and the transit station. This is done through a literature study and a case study in Knivsta, a suburban area of Stockholm connected to the city center through commuter trains. Improvements in the current bike-and-ride infrastructure in Knivsta are suggested, using the principles of Transit Oriented Development and Theory of Planned Behavior as guidelines. The most important aspects of high bike-and-ride proportions is the provision of separate bicycle paths and plentiful high-quality bicycle parking at transit stations. The current situation in Knivsta is inadequate with few separate bicycle paths and the bicycle parking does not fulfil recommendations. Suggestions for improvements are proposed, with developing a regional bicycle highway network in addition to other bicycle paths throughout the town of Knivsta, in addition to increased and improved bicycle parking at Knivsta train station to fulfil the requirements of the future as Knivsta is expected to double in population towards 2030. The changes proposed to the bicycle infrastructure in Knivsta have potential to increase public transport use, decreasing private car and park-and-ride use. Due to the bicycle network being convenient and accessible for virtually everyone, the municipality will develop towards environmental, economic, and social sustainability.

The master thesis deals with the engineering design and realization of a sports electric vehicle for disabled people. The first part of thesis summarize competitive vehicles on market and also the necessary theoretical knowledge for the design phase. After analyzing the research and determine the resulting vehicle concept follows the draft design. In this section based on calculations was chosen the solutions and necessary components for a vehicle. The following section describes the structure of the vehicle in implementing selected components. In conclusion, the evaluation of the proposed solution.

The subject of diploma thesis is a blue-print of appropriate adjustment space by the railway station in Brno Řečkovice, in terms of road structures, so that it meets all requirements of public transfer terminal and IDS JMK. Terminal should server as a transfer station between bus service and pojected North-Southern Rail Diameter. In the terminal, there should be a continuity on systems P+R, K+R and B+R ensured. The project is dealing with a partial design of adjacent local roads. The work is processed in AutoCAD 2011, Bentley InRoads and Microsoft Office 2007.
