Structural Analysis of the Pomeranian Metropolitan Railway Transport Network

Paweł Sobczak

Abstract


Public transport is one of the most important elements in the development of the economy and the social space in which it is located. Therefore, it is very important for the area to properly organize and plan a smooth and fault-tolerant transport network that will facilitate transport in the area. The paper analyzes the structural - using graph theory - the railway network of the Pomorska Kolej Metropolitalna to assess its structure in terms of its organizational and functional application. This network is used inter alia to co-implement public transport within Tri-City and Kashubia.

Keywords
