Abstract The article considers the effect Polish public universities have on the characteristics of urban traffic. The article describes how the public university community has changed over 25 years and its share in the urban population. The characteristics of the modal split in Polish university towns is given based on selected cases. The relation between the share of transport modes in the modal split and the size of towns or university communities in total population is analysed. A description is given of the possibilities and justification to optimise urban modal split by managing the mobility of university community populations.
