In order to effectively address transport issues and to gradually reduce the negative effects of transport, a "Master Plan for Road Transport" has been elaborated. The subject of the study is the analysis of transport in Prague 9, the assessment of future infrastructure needs and the processing of a so-called "Integrated Transport Management System" within this district.
The district of Prague 9 cannot solve the problems of transport alone, since a high share of the road network is managed by the city of Prague and subordinated bodies. However, with the "Master Plan" Prague 9 took the initiative to negotiate with all responsible authorities, preparing joint action towards the operation of local infrastructure networks at a 21st century level.

In the Prague 9 district significant growth is expected. The planned development of housing, commercial, administrative and business activities will strongly influence the demand for the transport capacity of transport networks.
To improve the quality of public transport the removal of bottlenecks in the communication network is required, in particular at crossroads. Pedestrian crossings need to be improved, and a coherent network of cycling routes might improve the accessibility of residential areas and support this mode of transport.
Considering the principles of sustainable mobility, a concept of measures and priorities of implementation has been elaborated. It allows to prepare and to implement an action plan for traffic engineering and traffic-organisational measures to reduce the negative impacts of transport in the district of Prague 9, focusing on pedestrians, cyclists, stationary traffic and the availability and quality of public transport.
