Summary/Abstract: The authors of the paper present ”urban sprawl” in the context of problems of residents of cities and communes. Cooperation of cities and communes in creating effective transportation systems has a significant meaning. This cooperation is an answer to negative effects of ”urban sprawl”. The authors of the paper show a function of spatial policy in creating effective transportation systems on the example of Cracow and cooperation between Cracow and Wieliczka. The article also presents a counter-example – lack of cooperation between Rzeszow and communes located nearby. As shown by the experience a correct strategy of spatial planning is an important point of limitation of the uncontrolled expansion of urban areas.
