Infrastruktura drogowa w krajobrazie w świetle opinii mieszkańców na przykładzie autostrady A1 (odcinek Świerklany-Gorzyczki)

Abstract

The dynamic development of the road infrastructure in the last few years draws attention to the necessity for studying the relationship between communication routes and their surroundings. Present technologies of the road infrastructure and the knowledge of the landscape architects help in connecting the demands for communication routes with the conservation of nature, culture and visual needs. A survey conducted among 200 residents of Godów, Gorzyce, Mszana and Świerklany commons provides information about their perception of landscape, which has undergone changes due to the development of A1 highway. The aim of this study is to identify the factors involved in the landscape changes and the evaluation of incorporating the road into the surrounding environment.
