Urban transport is a problem that affects the whole of society. Cities are aware of the unsustainability of the current situation and are trying to address it. Therefore, measures have been introduced in recent years that should contribute to the sustainable development of urban transport. One of the alternative modes of transport, which is becoming more and more popular, is the bike-sharing system.The aim of this paper is to point out the results of analyzes of the functioning of the shared bicycle system in the city of Zilina (Slovakia). The bike-sharing system in this city has been operating since March 2019. The article also presents an analysis of the availability of individual participants. It should be noted that the bicycle sharing system is very popular among the user system and that it is used by more people. Therefore, the city should be equipped with a dense network of conveniently located bicycle sharing stations. The quality of the bike-sharing system should match the user’s expectations. The paper presents the results of analyzes of factors influencing the use of the bicycle sharing system. The results obtained may be useful in carrying out activities that are more effective in using a bicycle sharing system as well as in increasing the level of satisfaction with the use of a bicycle sharing system.

The current COVID-19 pandemic situation has a very significant impact on urban mobility, as evidenced by fundamental changes in passengers’ behavior. In many cases, passengers have switched to other modes of transport to minimize the risk of infection (particularly cycling and walking). This paper aims to point out the analysis results of the impacts of a bike-sharing system in the city of Košice before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, this paper describes an analysis of the current state of bike-sharing in the Slovak Republic. We have stated a timeline of significant dates related to the COVID-19 pandemic. COVID-19 had a significant impact on people’s mobility and bike-sharing, as evidenced by the graphs and results in this paper.

The main aim of the paper is to define the carsharing as part of the sharing economy as well as to describe its task in the concept of sustainable development. Because most major cities solve problems with over dense traffic and lack of parking spaces, many European cities, therefore, prefer to invest in the development of urban public transport and new forms of mobility. The prospective concept is carsharing, i.e. sharing cars on a commercial basis. The article also analyzes the current situation of carsharing in foreign cities, where the system is most developed and also a detailed analysis of the current situation in the Slovak republic. In the final part of this paper, based on analyzed knowledge, complex studies, and Qsurveys, and the carsharing system is designed to be applied to the territory of Slovakia.
