Abstract:
Regional differentiation of the transport system. Sociogeographic regionalization and its relation to transport. Transport and local and regional development. Spatial interaction - theoretical and methodological framework. Mobility research - travel behavior, mode choice and the influence onto "modal-split." Modal competition. Practical use of transport-geographical analysis in transportation planning.
