Transportation Management in Urban Functional Areas

Real Estate Management and Valuation, Feb 20, 2024

In these regions, many residents commute from the suburbs to the city daily for work, education, and social purposes. Transport planning must consider these dynamics to ensure consistent and convenient connections between the city and its suburbs. This article stresses the need for a standardized tool to collect data on transport management models in FUAs across 38 OECD-affiliated countries. The proposed tool, a survey questionnaire, aims to gather information on how transport management models are organized and operate in these regions. The article discusses research conducted in the Olsztyn FUA, revealing significant variations in transport management methods among municipalities. The questionnaire is categorized into four themes: public transport, transport infrastructure, FUA transport strategy and innovation, and risks and monitoring, offering a comprehensive view of the transport management model. The study also highlights varying development priorities among FUA municipalities; some focus on public transport, while others invest in road infrastructure. This study underscores the importance of a cohesive approach to transport management in FUAs, considering their diverse needs and requirements. management models, transport, functional urban areas, social needs, Poland

This issue is still up to date and important due to the process of data bases integration.The aim of the study was to assess resource use plans in terms of their usefulness as a tool to implement the good governance concept. The plans in the same or a similar time period were chosen for the purpose of the analysis. The area of the research was the nine selected municipalities. In the particular stages of the study comparative analysis and case study analysis were used. As a result of the research appropriate changes to improve the implementation of the municipal policy in this regard were proposed. It was suggested to give the resource use plans a spatial dimension within the framework of local spatial information systems.

Public real estate resource – A burden or a source of income? A study of municipal land management in Poland

An ineffective real estate management has been observed in many countries and more detailed analysis are needed especially in post-socialist countries. That is why the article raises the issue of effective management of public areas in Polish municipalities. The purposes of the study are: (i) to compare resource management methods in individual communes with the use of economic analysis, (ii) to determine whether the activities of municipalities regarding their resources are consistent with their directions of development and the priority of balancing the local budget, (iii) to identify possible disparities between real estate management in rural, urban and urban-rural municipalities and (iv) to create main guidelines for more effective and efficient resource use planning. This study has been conducted with the use of data from selected Polish municipalities identified as proper representatives of post-socialist local governments. Therefore, data relating to real estate management were selected from: (a) municipal budgets as well as from reports on their implementation (b) resource use plans that support real estate management on a local level (c) property reports. The study uses empirical methods such as: comparative analysis, qualitative analysis, case study analysis, ratio analysis and a reference to good governance principles. The study has shown that local government uses a limited number of instruments dedicated to real estate resource management and in their current form they seem to be of little use for effective management. That is why their content should be modified, also because there is potential to introduce universal indicators and efficiency measures.

There is a fairly widespread belief that most public bicycle systems are located in densely populated urban areas, while this innovative communication solution becomes an attractive alternative to public transport in functional urban areas hinterlands. The purpose of the study is to show the types that bike – sharing have in functional urban areas. The subject of the analysis are bike – sharing systems adopted in Poland in the period from 2008 to 2019. Particular attention was paid to the system’s function, its availability and spatial coverage. The public bicycle types were compared. Moreover, the possibilities and development directions of this mode of transport were determined. The conducted research shows the growing role of the bicycle in functional urban area’s transport....

Investors decide with particular consideration of spatial, social, economic, legal and environmental conditions of area and investment. The investment process affects changes in local real estate market, spatial and usufruct structure, technical and social infrastructure. Dynamic development of suburban area is an important condition of potential investor's decision, even though it is particularly caused by an impact of investments on the local market, society and space. The main purpose of analysis is to reveal changes in local real estate market, spatial structure and infrastructure in a period from 2006 to 2009 as an effect of investments localized in suburbs of Olsztyn. This paper reveals part of inv estment process in creation of area development in spatial, economical and social dimension.

This processes are mostly planning work, that are aimed at changes in destination of areas and divisions of real estate, which are aimed at adapting these real estate to their new destination. The aim of these analyses is to reveal an impact that administrative decisions which approve projects of divisions have on development of suburbs. The research contain suburbs of Łomża. The scope of research covers the period from 2004 to 2006. The research contains so the scale of the occurrence as its influence on the local real estate market. The main measure of development was a change in the value of new real estate that arose after divisions. As a hypothesis it was assumed that divisions of real estate have an result in an increase in the value of real estate therefore they have an impact on development of suburbs.

The needs for transport development in post-socialist countries are so high that it is difficult to finance them, and most governments have to choose between immediate and less urgent needs. The aim of this study was to determine the role played by sustainable transport growth in the improvement of regional cohesion and sustainable regional development with a use of geographical information systems’ capabilities. The specific goals of the study were to: (i) determine the impact of EU subsidies on the regional transport development; (ii) identify threats to regional cohesion resulting from under-capitalised regions, (iii) examine geographical information systems’ capabilities in periodical regional transport development monitoring. The analyses include evaluation of the regions’ involvement in ...

As the travel-to-work analysis seems to be an important issue for creating coherent functional urban areas, the main determinants of daily commuting in a sub-regional scale should be investigated. There is a common opinion, that residents of the suburbs are bound to use individual forms of transportation, and public transport does not meet their needs. That is why the aim of this research is to identify the main challenges, opportunities and barriers to sustainable transport development in functional urban areas, in order to avoid the adverse effects of urbanisation. For the purpose of the article, a comparative analysis for selected Polish functional urban areas was conducted, and both shortterm and long-term prospects of transport ...

Celem niniejszego opracowania jest ukazanie jej nieoczywistych skutków przy uwzględnieniu badań lokalnych. Posłużono się m.in. metodą opisową, uzupełnioną obliczeniami, a także metodą estymacji jądrowej. Jak wynika z obserwacji, zabudowa podmiejska może być skoncentrowana przy istniejących urządzeniach infrastrukturalnych, a realizacja nowych inwestycji to proces wieloletni, nie powodujący zatem konieczności ponoszenia nakładów w krótkim czasie. Pozytywnym następstwem suburbanizacji może być natomiast wzrost wpływów budżetowych w gminach podmiejskich oraz przesunięcie ruchu na drogi o większej przepustowości. Ponadto korzyści odnoszą sami mieszkańcy w wyniku poprawy jakości przestrzeni mieszkalnej.

This study focuses on road accessibility in rural areas where an insufficient number and scope of international and domestic investments can lead to an imbalance in the transport infrastructure. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate road accessibility at the level of the NUTS4 units in view of their sustainable development and their divergence from rural units that are less distant from the main transport routes. The studied area—a province—is situated in the northeast of Poland. Data concerning the travel time, condition, and density of the road network were analysed to develop and compare the measures of road accessibility in individual units and to perform an overall assessment of the NUTS4 units. Partial indices were calculated with the support of the QGIS and ArcGI...

Relationships between the city and its surroundings depend on the road network and daily traffic. That is why in most cases cities 'spread' in a linear form-forming an 'urban sprawl' with a low density of development and long distances between housing and retail services. According to analyses, cities in Poland affect their outskirts in an 'urban sprawl' manner. The development of suburban housing dependent on communications leads to spatial conflicts. This article shows both the interdependence and consequences of this situation. The main methods used were statistical and spatial analyses and a case study.

Direct access to a public road, or access to an internal road that provides communication with the public road, are a factor affecting the value of real estate. In addition, this factor is taken into account in the process of changing the function of the area, especially in determining zoning and land use. The decision of purchasing real estate often depends on transportation accessibility, because it has an impact on developing the selected plot.Suburban real estate markets, as markets exposed to particularly strong investment pressure, develop depending on the influx of external investors and the local transportation network. Here, the smaller the distance from the city center, the greater the building concentration; nevertheless, it is still important to improve transportation links and create a well-developed local transporta...

Some of its aspects may lead to unsustainable growth and dispersion of built–up area. The main causes of this process are increases in costs of transportation, infrastructure and nature conservation. There is a threat of uncontrolled spread of development as a result of urbanization processes, particularly in suburban municipalities. It has been requested by many researches that authorities put more interest in avoiding dispersed suburbanization, but they still are looking for better solutions, tools and procedures to solve this problem.The aim of this article is to demonstrate the important role of spatial information from land information systems in identifying and predicting the causes of the development of dispersed built–up areas. Thanks to GIS instruments local authorities are more likely to preserve spatial order and avoid the side effects...

Satisfying the residents’ expectations by implementing necessary technical and social infrastructure becomes a priority. Therefore, public investments play an important role in suburban areas. The article discusses the role of public purpose goals and their achievement using a case study which encompassed the outskirts of Olsztyn and consisted of detailed analyses of two gminas (communes) adjacent to the city. The research covered the time period from 2006 to 2010. The relationship between the development of housing functions in a suburban area and the location of public purpose investments such as technical and social infrastructure has been documented. The execution of public purpose projects is a follow-up of the development strategies prepared for the gminas where public investments are shown as a stimulant of suburban development....
