DOSTĘPNOŚĆ PIESZA I TRANSPORTEM INDYWIDUALNYM DO PARKÓW W TURKU I KONINIE
PEDESTRIAN AND INDIVIDUAL TRANSPORT ACCESSIBILITY OF TUREK AND KONIN PARKS

Summary/Abstract: The aim of this article is to evaluate the accessibility on foot and by individual transport of parks located in Turek and Konin. The analysed area comprises 11 parks: five in Turek and six in Konin. The analysis enabled the presentation of the housing area within isochrones 0–5 minutes,5–10 minutes and 10–15 minutes from the parks. To achieve this purpose, data from the Topographic Objects Data Base were used. It was found that the parks in Turek are more easily accessible for pedestrians and individual transport than those in Konin, which is largely due to the fact that Turek is a city five times smaller than Konin, while the size of park area in both cases is similar. It is important to conduct this type of analysis because accessibility of green areas to inhabitants is one of the indicators of urban environment quality.
