The survey is the second (comparative) study, which was carried out as a part of the analysis of "Changes of public transport in Ljubljana and the Ljubljana region." The research is based on the examination of the ability to maintain the existing relatively high quality of life in the city while promoting sustainable transport solutions at the same time. For this purpose, detailed checking and assessment of the degree of legitimization of project measures needed to be done by interviewing the population, which will be affected by the changes in traffic arrangements the most. The key objective of public opinion polls on changing of the organization of public transport in Ljubljana and the Ljubljana region was therefore not only oriented on the performance of formal implemented measures that may turn out to be misguided after a certain period of time, but mainly on finding ways to achieve consensus among various groups of stakeholders, which include both government (local and national), capital interests groups and ordinary citizens as well. The study not only reviews the public opinion regarding the adoption of new improvements in the traffic regulation on the corridor, but, among other things, also analyses the opinions of relevant social groups, provides feedback information on possible improvements of the envisaged measures, anticipates potential conflicts that may arise during implementation and invites public opinion leaders in individual locations to participate and be further involved in the process of improving the traffic regulation on the corridor CIVITAS Elan. The survey consists of 12 topical sections (Rating traffic regulation in Ljubljana, Satisfaction with LPP, Transport and the functionality, Condition and development of cycling, Delivery transport measures CIVITAS Elan, Uniform ticketing, Congestion charging, Yellow belts, Public informing, Public perception of the city of Ljubljana, Demographics).
