Boháč, Ondřej ; Blažek, Jiří (advisor) ; Květoň, Viktor (referee)
This paper evaluates the benefits of investments in cycling infrastructure for regional development. The case study deals with socio-economic impacts of cycling transport infrastructure built for the Orlicko-Třebovsko region. The main thesis does not assume profitability of such investments in socio-economic realm of the region. Overall societal benefit has been assessed through the cost-benefit analysis. Individual elements of the analysis are focused on short-term, long-term, direct and indirect effects for the development of the region. The benefits are to be found in connection with implementation, management and operation of the project as well as transport sector, services sector and recreation. Specific positive effects take mainly the form of business sales, employment and savings for the population. The analysis has taken note of certain positive effect that is nevertheless economically inadequate to the amount of initial investment. Therefore in this case cycling transport infrastructure proved to be ineffective tool of regional development.

Kůst, Václav ; Houška, Milan (advisor) ; Jana, Jana (referee)
Czech Republic has one of the densest and highest quality marked hiking trails in Europe, covering completely the whole country. But these trails are not planned with respect to the minority of the population with some kind of handicap. This is a group of families with small children who prefer hiking or biking, for families with strollers and disabled persons in wheelchairs. As the author of this thesis is a councilor of the village Jarov and also a councilor of this village in the Mikroregion Úslava organization he decided to plan a short circular hiking trails with respect to these neglected tourist groups in order to expand tourism in the area of Mikroregion Úslava. These routes may also partly overlap with marked hiking trails (due to their density) and are planned with practical experiences of the author. The results of the thesis will be incorporated into the information brochures of Mikroregion Úslava.
The thesis is divided into theoretical and practical part. Theoretical part describes the methods for solving the travelling salesman problem and provides general information on the concept of micro-regions - voluntary unions of the municipalities. The practical part describes Mikroregion Úslava, the points of interest database creation procedure and planning sightseeing routes for families with children on foot, by bicycle or in strollers. There is also planned a route for disabled persons in wheelchairs in Blovice, which the author of the thesis eventually eliminated from the reasons described.
