  • Transportation Infrastructure Impacts on Firm Location
    Transportation infrastructure impacts on firm location: the effect of a new metro line in the suburbs of Madrid Lucia Mejia-Dorantes , Antonio Paez , Jose Manuel Vassallo Firm location patterns emerge as a consequence of multiple factors, including firm considerations, labor force availability, market opportunities, and transportation costs. Many of these factors are influenced by changes in accessibility wrought by new transportation infrastructure. In this paper we use spatial sta­ tistical techniques and a micro-level data base to evaluate the effects of Madrid's metro line 12 (known as Metrosur) expansion on business location patterns. The case study is the municipality of Alcorcon, which is served by the new metro line since 2003. Specifically, we explore the location patterns by dif­ ferent industry sectors, to evaluate if the new metro line has encouraged the emergence of a "Metrosur spatial economy". Our results indicate that the pattern of economic activity location is related to urban accessibility and that agglomeration, through economies of scale, also plays an important role. The results presented in this paper provide evidence useful to inform efficient transportation, urban, and regional economic planning. 1.

Taxi All terminals have clearly signed taxi areas outside the arrivals area. Official taxis are white with a red stripe and have the Madrid City Council coat-of-arms on their doors. Avoid people who offer taxi services inside the terminals. Make sure that the taxi driver starts the meter at the beginning of the journey (minimum fare).

Car rental There are many companies to choose in Terminals 1 and 4 of Madrid Airport. Further information available here: http://www.aena.es/en/madrid- barajas-airport/car-rental.html 3. Bus City bus route 101 runs from terminals T1, T2 and T3 of the airport to the Canillejas Transport Hub, where there are connections to several city and intercity bus routes and the Madrid Metro system.

  • Study of the Structural and Robustness Characteristics of Madrid Metro Network
    sustainability Article Study of the Structural and Robustness Characteristics of Madrid Metro Network Elisa Frutos Bernal 1,*,† and Angel Martín del Rey 2,† 1 Department of Statistics, University of Salamanca, 37008 Salamanca, Spain 2 Department of Applied Mathematics, Institute of Fundamental Physics and Mathematics, University of Salamanca, 37008 Salamanca, Spain; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] † These authors contributed equally to this work. Received: 8 May 2019; Accepted: 19 June 2019; Published: 25 June 2019 Abstract: A transportation service must be sustainable, respectful of the environment, and socially and economically responsible. These requirements make metro networks the ideal candidate as the most efficient mean of transport in our society. Now, a correct management of this type of infrastructures entails the analysis of the structure and robustness of these networks. This allows us to detect malfunctions and, above all, to design in the most appropriate way the expansion of subway networks. This is one of the major challenges facing the study of transport networks in sustainable smart cities. In this sense, the complex network analysis provides us with the necessary scientific tools to perform both quantitative and qualitative analysis of metro networks. This work deals with Madrid metro network, which is the largest in Spain. The main structural and topological characteristics, and robustness features of Madrid metro network were studied. The results obtained were analyzed and some conclusions were derived. Keywords: complex network analysis; subway networks; centrality measures; robustness; Madrid metro network 1. Introduction One of the central pillars on which sustainability is based is the design and implementation of procedures that allow us to manage in an efficient way the public resources, services and infrastructures.
