Title
Analyses and problems of spatial development for planning networks of social and economic infrastructure on the national level
Abstract
Transport networks are the most important programmes of the European Union, more precisely, the network of fast railroads and the reorganisation of air traffic. In the North European area we are thus witness to intensive planning, design and positioning corner stones, that connect relations of mobility between expansive territorial basins and international destinations, as well as directing transport between global economies. These starting points are the basis for analysing defined needs in directing strategic spatial development in Slovenia and understanding spatial development problems in establishing priorities.
Key Words
