Abstract Today agglomerations are faced with a number of transport issues related to the increasing mobility, especially by car. Growing congestion and environmental pollution are forcing to search for solutions to encourage changes in travel behavior. One of the effective tools supporting public transport is the integration of different transport systems in urban areas. The case study of the railway line Wieliczka—Krakow Airport operating within Krakow agglomeration area can be presented as an example of good practice for integration of rail with other transport systems. The article presents the solutions in the field of infrastructural, organizational, financial and economic together with informational integration. It also presents the dynamics of the passenger flow volume as an effect of transport systems integration.
