The implementation of the obligations resulting from the Act on electromobility and alternative fuels forces local government units to pro-vide transport services in public collective transport with the use of low- and zero-emission buses. Zamość, as a city with more than 50,000 inhabitants, is obliged to purchase zero-emission rolling stock, which is connected with the analysis of network reorganization and the choice of shaping new transport bundles in the city. Despite the fact that MZK Zamość owns a fleet of low-emission vehicles (powered by CNG), it is obliged to purchase an appropriate number of zero-emission buses (e.g. e-buses). The article presents by means of SWOT analysis the strengths and weaknesses as well as opportunities and threats resulting from the change in the adaptation of the transport network of the city of Zamość to the legal conditions concerning electromobility and low-carbon buses.
