ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT: This paper shows the influence of door-to-door approach on the results of calculating distance (time) to public transport stations. The experiments are completed in a region in the Czech Republic-in the Moravian-Silesian Region. There many houses may be quite far away from the nearest bus stop or railway station, which influences the walking distance (time). In our study we have calculated service area of stops and active stops, statistically explored them and presented in maps. We have studied the service situation in municipalities and the correlation between population and number of stops. Based on this we have established access regions to bus stops and railway stations via the street network for the whole region. The results show convincingly the importance of the door-to-door approach.
