Location preference is a repeatedly debated subject in urban land economics. By and large, these deliberations are either empirical or theoretical in nature. A sizeable number of the previous studies tackle the question of most favorable location provisional on a certain set of constrictions. Moreover, other studies are dedicated to elucidating the nature (worth) of a real property at a particular location. Nevertheless, the problem of ascertaining the indicators that influence real property price is general to both sets of studies. The current body of knowledge on the impact of transportation infrastructure on real estate prices is diverse in its outcome and result with particular reference to degree or extent of impact as well as bearing, ranging from a negative to an unimportant or a positive effect. On the literature results, multiple spatial lag variables were found to be statistically significant signifying that a number of features or attributes of adjoining residential accommodations have significant influence on the subject residential property's value. Whereas the largest part of earlier hedonic price empirical studies considered only selected factors (such as, positive as well as negative impacts of single transportation mode or means, positive or else negative impacts of multiple transportation modes) into account, the majority of recent empirical studies, however, considered all these key determinants, factors and indicators into consideration for analyzing joint impacts of transportation facility. Through considerable strategy, policy in addition to planning or forecasting implications underlying the association between transit oriented developments and real estate values and the difference between previous studies’ outcomes and results, there is a strong necessity and requirement for further study and analysis to ascertain an advanced, reliable in addition to dependable level of conclusiveness.
The aim of this paper is to find the best public transport system suitable for suburban areas. Two measures of evaluation are developed, in sense of spatial and temporal accessibility. Three options of transport system are evaluated with the use of these measures, with consideration of different time horizons. The first option was the existing bus system. The second option concerns the modification and development of the bus system with the addition of rail transit. A futuristic "dial-a-ride" system is studied in the third option. The ranges of residences from past, present and future are shown for selected time horizons in relation to transportation network. The study concludes that only advanced "dial-a-ride" system can offer good conditions for people who choose public transport means compared to private car transport. The analyses were conducted for an exemplary village located within one Polish agglomeration. The conclusions could be adopted in other cities and countries due the similarity of urbanisation and transportation processes around the whole world.

W artykule przedstawiono preferencje pasażerów gdyńskiego transportu miejskiego w zakresie wzrostu dostępności przestrzennej usług przez wydłużenie trasy linii trolejbusowej. Jak wynika z badań preferencji i zachowań komunikacyjnych mieszkańców Gdyni, dostępność niezmiennie plasuje się w hierarchii postulatów przewozowych na czwartym miejscu, po bezpośredniości, punktualności oraz częstotliwości. W pierwszej części artykułu przedstawiono pojęcie „dostępności transportowej”, scharakteryzowano transport trolejbusowy oraz obszar śródmieścia Gdyni, na którym testowano obsługę zbiorowego transportu miejskiego trolejbusami bez wykorzystania sieci trakcyjnej. W ostatniej części zaprezentowano wyniki badań pierwotnych w formie opisowej i graficznej oraz dokonano ich analizy.

The paper presents the preferences of the passengers of the urban transport in Gdynia to increase the spatial accessibility of the services. As indicated by the survey of travel preferences and behavior of inhabitants of Gdynia, accessibility is four that the list of travel postulates, following directness, punctuality and frequency. The first part of the paper presents the idea of transport accessibility, characterizes trolleybus transport and describes the area of Gdynia city centre where the service of trolley bus transportation without catenary was tested. The last part presents the results of primary research in descriptive and graphic form and contains ananalysis of these results.
W artykule za cel przyjęto ocenę dostępności pieszej oraz transportem indywidualnym parków zlokalizowanych w granicach Turku i Konina. Na analizowanych obszarach zinwentaryzowano 11 parków w tym pięć w Turku a sześć w Koninie. Wynikiem analiz było przedstawienie powierzchni zabudowy mieszkaniowej w izochronach 0–5 minut, 5–10 minut oraz 10–15 minut od parków. W tym celu wykorzystano dane pochodzące z Bazy Danych Obiektów Topograficznych (BDOT). Powyższe dane wskazują, że lepszą dostępnością pieszą jak i transportem indywidualnym, dla mieszkańców, charakteryzują się parki w Turku, na co wpływ ma fakt, że jest to miasto pięciokrotnie mniejsze pod względem powierzchni niż Konin, zaś liczba i powierzchnia parków w obu przypadkach jest porównywalna. Analizy te są niezwykle istotne, ponieważ dostępność terenów zieleni dla mieszkańców stanowi jeden ze wskaźników jakości środowiska miejskiego.

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.
