przewozy

Przewozy is a Polish noun meaning transport or conveyance, used to describe the activity of moving people or goods from one place to another. The term derives from the verb przewozić (to transport) and appears in common expressions such as przewozy osób (passenger transport) and przewozy towarów (freight transport). It also functions as part of the names of some companies and services that provide transportation.

In Poland and other markets, przewozy covers a range of modes, including road transport (bus, coach, and trucking), rail transport (passenger and freight services), as well as maritime and air transport. Many operators offer multimodal przewozy that combine several modes to move passengers or goods efficiently. The term is used in public and private sectors, from scheduled public services to private hire, courier, and logistics providers.

Regulation of przewozy falls under national transport law and, for cross-border activity, European Union rules on safety, licensing, competition, and environmental standards. Authorities oversee vehicle standards, driver working time, and access to transport markets, while planning and investment in infrastructure influence the scope and quality of przewozy. In Polish usage, the word remains a generic descriptor for transport activities, rather than a brand, though it is found in the official names of various transport operators and services.
