Potential of Regional Airport in České Budějovice

Abstract

The objective of the contribution is to analyse the potential of the regional airport in České Budějovice after the modernization and obtaining the status of an international public airport in 2020 for the development of the region and inclusion in the category based on its importance. The South Bohemian region is one of the most visited regions in the Czech Republic. To be able to assess the potential considering its popularity among tourists, it is necessary to assess the need for connection of the airport to the transport infrastructure and thus improve its accessibility and comfort. The results published in the contribution are potential basis for further studies and planning of the territorial development of the region.

Analytical model assessing the effect of increased traffic flow intensities on the road administration, maintenance and lifetime

“…The current speed of the heavy freight vehicle (and hence the entire diverted traffic flow) on the diversion route is de-ducted from [6][7][8][9][10] for a given section of the route as the minimum speed. Thanks to this minimum speed, it is possible to determine the coefficient C 4 expressing the influence of the speed of heavy freight vehicles.…”

“…Thanks to this minimum speed, it is possible to determine the coefficient C 4 expressing the influence of the speed of heavy freight vehicles. Depending on the current speed in a given section of the route, the coefficient C 4 is equal to 1.00 for the speed higher than 50 km/h and equal to 2.00 for the speed lower than 50 km/h or when stopping vehicles [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15]. As already mentioned for parameter I 1 in [1,12], the entire diversion route is divided (segmented) into m homogeneous sections with a similar character of traffic.…”
