Assuring a high degree of accessibility to essential services (health care facilities, supply and services, cultural and educational, recreational, etc.) is very important especially for the metropolis with high territorial dynamics. In the case of metropolises, the analysis concerns the alternate means of assessing the efficiency of the public transport system with the goal of ensuring improved accessibility for different social categories (pupils and students, employees, elder people). However, for improving efficiently accessibility it is required to identify the obstacles in the urban environment and to evaluate the effect (Svensson, 2010). Good intra-urban connectivity and accessibility is necessary for ensuring high life quality for all the citizens, a physical and mental health and wellbeing (Tyrväinen, et al., 2007, Sotoudehnia, Comber, 2011) as well as high attractiveness for investments (ESPON GROSEE, Interim Report, 2013). The relevant recent literature, as well as the EU policies, focus on sustainable urban mobility, improvement of the public transport network and access to services and a better coordination of urban and transport planning (Wickham, Lohan, 1999, Sustainable Urban Transport Plans, 2007, Crampton, et al., 2008, ESPON ATTREG, 2010, ESPON TRACC, 2011). It is debated whether transport infrastructure improvements contribute to spatial polarization or decentralization (ESPON TRACC, 2013). In the context of spatial development, the quality of transport infrastructure in terms of capacity, connectivity, travel speeds, etc. determines the locational advantage of an area (i.e. a region, a city or a corridor) relative to other locations, i.e. its competitive advantage (Spiekermann, Wegner, 2007). The accessibility has both spatial and time features. It displays the convenience degree of a place as a spatial entity. Also, time is the main impedance factor Abstract
