20 Spatial distribution of road network D r = Length r /Area s, road network density Legend Road density (km/100km 2 )

21 Road network accessibility Based on space barrier: A i = i=1 n T ij M j j=1 n M j T ij :Travel Time from i town to j town M j : Weight Based on space syntax : Where: L i = 1 RRA i = D k RA i RA i = 2(P i 1) n 2 D k = 2n{log 2 n } (n 1)(n 2) Legend Time required to reach each other 0-25m 25-30m 30-35m 35-40m 40-45m 21
