  1. TRACC TRansport ACCessibility at Regional/Local Scale and Patterns in Europe ESPON 2013 Programme Internal Seminar Evidence-based Cohesion Policy: Territorial Dimensions 29-30 November 2011 Krakow, Poland

  2. TPG • Spiekermann & Wegener, Urban and Regional Research (S&W), Dortmund, Germany (Lead Partner) • Charles University in Prague, Department of Social Geography and Regional Development, Prague, Czech Republic • RRG Spatial Planning and Geoinformation, Oldenburg, Germany • Mcrit, Barcelona, Spain • University of Oulu, Department of Geography, Oulu, Finland • TRT Trasporti e Territorio, Milan, Italy • S. Leszczycki Institute of Geography and Spatial Organisation - Polish Academy of Sciences, Warsaw, Poland

  3. Main objectives • to take up and update the results of existing studies on accessibility at the European scale using most recent available network and socio-economic data, • to extend the range of accessibility indicators by further indicators responding to new policy questions and further developing the quality and validity of the existing indicators, • to extend the spatial resolution of accessibility indicators by calculating, besides European accessibility, also global and regional accessibility, • to explore the likely impacts of available policies at the European and national scale to improve global, European and regional accessibility in the light of new challenges, such as globalisation, energy scarcity and climate change.

  4. Key policy questions • What are the differences between accessibility at three different levels (regional, European and global) considering the four modes road, rail, water and air? • What is the link between accessibility at the different levels and for different modes of European regions and their economic development? How has this link changed over time? Does the strength of this link differ across the EU? • What could be the territorial impact of rising energy prices on the future developments of road, rail, water and air transport? • What could be the impact of various transport scenarios on climate change, access patterns and economic development?

  5. TRACC set of accessibility indicators

  6. Global potential accessibility intermodal

  7. European potential accessibility, rail freight, unitised

  8. Urban connectivity road

  9. National potential accessibility travel, rail

  10. Access to freight terminals road DRAFT

  11. TRACC Regional case studies

  12. Accessibility potential to jobs road DRAFT

  13. Access to health care facilities (road travel time to nearest hospital)

  14. Accessibility scenarios Proposed core network • What are the effects of the new proposal of the European Commission for Trans-European Transport Networks on accessibility? • Effects on Europe-wide accessibility pattern • Effects on regional accessibility pattern

  15. Accessibility scenarios Proposed TEN-T network rail • What are the effects of the new proposal of the European Commission for Trans-European Transport Networks on accessibility? • Effects on Europe-wide accessibility pattern • Effects on regional accessibility pattern

  16. Impact analysis and scenarios • Analysis of the relationship between accessibility and economic development and environmental indicators over time. • Consistent set of long-term scenarios of European transport. • Likely spatial impacts of European transport scenarios up to the year 2030 (regional accessibility, regional economic development, territorial cohesion, polycentricity, environmental impacts).

  17. Planned policy scenarios
