Abstract

This paper provides an analysis of the influence of an urban spatial planning policy on the living standards and the costs of living of the city’s residents and on the costs borne by the municipality. In the analysis, two scenarios for the development of spatial planning of a selected city (of approx. 350,000 residents and 176 km2) were compared: the so-called ‘compact city’ and ‘diffuse city’. A city transport demand model was also used in the analysis. It was developed by the authors for different time horizons of the forecast period. The key objective of the housing policy described in this paper should be to manage the spatial development of the city in the most beneficial way. This requires a thorough multiple-criteria assessment of a number of development scenarios using state-of-the-art IT tools, such as ‘transport demand models’ used by the authors, and the results of market research into the residents’ preferences.
