Abstract
In Poland, rail transport in the intermodal transport system plays a smaller role than in Western European countries. Its development is inhibited by a very strong domination of road transport. The intermodal transport in Poland has a small share in the total transport, while a consistent and dynamic growth of this indicator is observed. For the last dozen or so years or so, despite transport fluctuations in the European Union, a dynamic growth of intermodal rail transport has been recorded. These tendencies have been delayed, but are also being gradually transferred to Poland. This is due to the development of the economy in Asian countries and the growing trade exchange with Europe. For further growth of the importance of intermodal transport in Poland, a systematic improvement of technical, legal, organizational, economic and financial conditions is necessary. This article contains a detailed analysis of macro-factors such as: economic factors, technological factors, social factors, political and legal factors, international factors. For this purpose, the PEST methodology was used. Moreover, the scenarios were estimated according to the degree of probability on the basis of a checklist of significant factors of particular segments of the macro-environment for intermodal transport in Poland. The obtained data concerning the dynamics of intermodal transport in Poland were subjected to statistical analysis. The influence of each of the factors on the functioning of enterprises operating in the area of intermodal transport was determined. It was checked which are important at present and which will be important within a few years. A list of factors according to the strength of the impact on the organisation was prepared in order to determine the dynamics of change.
