Roadside soils are affected by traffic. Topsoil samples were collected at 35 Moravian localities with varying traffic intensity. They were analyzed by XRF spectrometry to obtain total element composition. The evaluation of results was carried out with an emphasis on risk elements (Cr, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Mo, Cd, Pb). Positive correlation between traffic intensity and Cu and Pb content in the soil was discovered. The evaluation of the level of contamination was carried out on the basis of the limits announced by the Czech Ministry of Environment. The whole diploma thesis is supplemented by a review in order to provide a comprehensive view on this extensive issue.
