Summary/Abstract: The paper aims to analyse urban transport in the context of how sustainable development is understood and implemented in the case of Copenhagen. An on-site query was conducted in order to reach the research objective. The results of the analysis helped the authors identify forms in which the sustainable transport concept is being implemented, including the diversification of means of transport, the development of intermodal transport and hierarchies of public transport, and the Copenhagenization of the city space. The outcome of the study also includes the indication of key challenges which are related to the development of sustainable transport and primarily stem from the ubiquitous bicycle transport in Copenhagen. In order to perform a more in-depth analysis, the authors also interviewed city space users – indigenous Danes and Polish immigrants. Two perspectives/opinions on the functioning of the Copenhagen urban transport system were thus obtained: that of the indigenous residents of the city and that of immigrants. The results of those interviews contributed to the indication of trends in the use of different means of transport by both studied social groups.
