Due to failures, reserve vehicles are necessary for ensuring public transport on regular routes. The paper deals with the determination of the necessary number of spare vehicles. Two methods (a simplified one using the coefficient of availability, and a more accurate method based on the probability distributions of times between failures and times of repairs) have been proposed, and a special PC program was created for the pertinent calculations. In the paper, also practical aspects of determination of the necessary number of reserve vehicles are discussed.
