THE SPATIAL REORGANIZATION OF AN INTEGRATION TRANSPORT POINT: A CASE STUDY OF THE CITY OF ŠIBENIK

Abstract

This paper formulates a specific methodology based on a mathematical model that selects the optimal terminal configuration of individual transport modes with- in the point of integration of passenger transport. The methodology is applicable for the purpose of analyzing the current situation and proposing improvements to the point of in- tegration of passenger transport. The application of the methodology is presented at the point of integration of different transport modes in the city of Šibenik. As the main pa- rameter in the mathematical model, the time distance required for a certain type of pas- senger to walk between each individual terminal within the integration point was chosen. Technical and technological criteria that influence the choice of the optimal configuration were evaluated and included in mathematical calculations. By selecting the optimal ter- minal configuration within the integration point, the preconditions for better integration of transport modes as well as for greater passenger satisfaction will be achieved.
