Transport Accessibility of Regional Centres as a Tool for Sustainable Mobility

The uneven distribution of the population in the territory has many common denominators. The Czech Republic is no exception, where, in addition to geographical factors, the degree of development of the transport network also plays an important role. There are significant differences in transport accessibility between regions. It must have a good transport infrastructure to make public transport more competitive and sustainable with individual car transport. This paper maps the development of transport networks in the Czech Republic and compares commuting times between the different regional cities of the Czech Republic. Individual car transport, rail transport, and bus transport were chosen as the main transport modes.
