• In the conditions of a intensive development that
  the city of Tirana is going through, it became
  evident that public transport, already a
  decentralized function of the local government
  units, should become the object of well designed
  research and studies in order to identify the
  problems, priorities and possible solutions
  towards rationalization as the pre-requisite for
  a more effective service.

Project Idea Abstract

• The project idea is to study and imply local
  stakeholders (Public and Private) that are
  involved in TIRANA Public transport. To this
  purpose, as the governance in the first goal we
  want to achieve and implement the dissention on
  models available, as ATR model.

6

  terms of demand and supply.

TIRANA

• Tirana is the capital of Albania and the largest
  city. It was founded in 1614 by Sulejman Pasha
  and became Albania's capital city in 1920.
  (located almost in the center of the Rep. of
  Albania).
• In 2005, its population was officially estimated
  at 585,756, although other estimates put the
  figure as high as 1,000,000.
• Tirana is Albania's major industrial centre. The
  principal industries include agricultural
  products and machinery, textiles,
  pharmaceuticals, and metal products.

Motivations for bilateral agreement between
Italy-Albania
11
Regulatory framework

• The Ministry of Public Services, Transport and
  Telecommunication takes care for the policies of
  public transport in general according to the laws
  of Parliament.
• The public transport of Tirana is in jurisdiction
  of the municipality authority, the directorate of
  public transport. The Municipality Council takes
  care for the management of the system. They
  decide for the lines, operators, finances and
  takes decisions on urban transport according to
  the public demand and supply.

12
The actual system of public transport

• The public transport in Tirana is privatized and
  the market is liberalized.
• The companies that operate in market are
• Private operators
• Alb Trans
• Ferlut
• Tirana Urban Trans LTD
• Tirana Lines ltd
• Public operator
• The Park of Travellers of Urban Transport
• Although its privatized the public transport
  system still remains unregulated because the main
  problem is the inadequate infrastructure like
  signals, regulation etc.
