Fig. 7 Rate of missing return connection in municipalities for time interval 4:30
5:45
-
Concerning the rate of missing return connection, the situation is much better
for the morning hours than during the afternoon (what is caused by bad public
transport conditions for return journey after 22:15). For the 1st work shift starting at
6o
clock, the best situation is in Prague and Brno, followed by several other
isolated districts. To the opposite the worst situation for return journeys after the 1st
work shift is in the ring of districts around central Bohemia, mainly close to the
border between Bohemia and Moravia (JH, PE, HB, ZR, CR), the belt in central
Moravia (ZL, KM, PR, OL, BR), surprisingly also 3rd and 4th largest cities Ostrava
(OT) and Plzen (PM), and several others (Fig.
6
).
The situation within particular districts is usually not homogeneous (see Fig.
7
).
Often even neighbouring municipalities are largely different in the availability of
return connection.
The rate of missing return connection for the 2nd work shift is much more
problematic. The average rate is almost 2 times worse than early in the morning, but
the regional differences are not so strong. Most of districts have more than half
municipalities without suitable returning connections. The worst situation is again
in the centre part of the CR (mainly the Vyso
'
ina region, districts as HB, ZR, TR,
JI, PE etc.), Brno and some parts of NE and NW Bohemia (Fig.
6
).
It is worth to note that any interpretation must take into account that good
conditions of return connection existence are also assigned to areas with a very low
one-way connectivity (a very low number of accessible municipalities results in
higher probability of return connection existence and thus also signi
č
cantly lower
rate of missing return connection). That is why a combined evaluation of both-way
accessibility has been adopted.
