Accessible transport infrastructure (mainly the motorway network) has influenced many decisions concerning the location of industrial investments. The impact of transport infrastructure on the reduction of regional disparities in Slovakia is limited mainly due to the concentration of transport infrastructure investment in the more developed regions of Slovakia. Poorer regions in eastern Slovakia and the southern part of Central Slovakia are still affected by the unfavourable level of accessibility to the transport infrastructure that creates important conditions affecting their development.}, type={Text}, title={Main problems of transport infrastructure development in Slovakia and effects on regional development}, URL={http://rcin.org.pl/igipz/Content/53295/PDF/WA51_72313_r2015-t88-no1_G-Polonica-Michniak.pdf}, keywords={transport infrastructure development, regional development, travel time, industrial investmentlocation, regional disparities, regional structure, Slovakia}, }
