Interconnectivity of transport networks: a conceptual and empirical exploration
Interconnectivity of transport networks is a major aim addressed in transport policy today. It refers to different spatial scales and different traffic systems, implying different policy settings. The latter situation explains why interconnectivity as a concept is poorly defined in a generic sense. The paper addresses interconnectivity at a conceptual and operational level, and attempts to identify major generic aspects. Further, it considers interconnectivity in a policy context, by emphasizing its multi‐actor setting. In an empirical case study, the interconnectivity of particular Dutch cities with London is explored, while focusing on the rail and airline system. The paper concludes with a number of interesting issues for future research.
