THE INFLUENCE OF BUCHAREST’S METRO NETWORK DEVELOPMENT ON URBAN AREA ACCESSIBILITY

The paper tries to evaluate the influence of the Bucharest metro network development on the urban areas accessibility and to characterize its homogeneity. In the case study the homogeneity index is determined according to which some conclusions regarding the actual metro network situation are drawn. The network poles accessibility was also determined, the quality of service of the inhabitants from the five studied areas being characterized. Some correlations between the accessibility and the population and between the accessibility and the population density were made, some conclusions upon the further network developments being drawn.
