Abstract

The transport accessibility is one of the crucial issues of planning the transport development in the spatial dimension. The improvement of the transport accessibility of Polish regions is one of the major aims in socioeconomic development strategies. The flow of funds from European Union made it possible to realize numerous investments in all modes of transport, including the construction of motorways and express roads, as well as the modernization of the railway network. The article examines the impact of the completed road and rail investments on the increase of the transport accessibility of the voivodeship cities in Poland by investigating the shortening of road and rail transit times in mutual transport relations between them.
