Introduction: The Context for the Study • This study has been commissioned by One North East, the Regional Development Agency (RDA) for the North East of England. It examines the relationship between city regions and rural areas. In particular, the study examines the links between two city regions in the North East region (Tyne & Wear and Tees Valley) and the rural areas within and surrounding them. It identifies the types of linkages and available data sources to quantify the scale of flows. It comments on the current economic significance of such linkages and suggests ways in which their beneficial effects might be enhanced. • There has been growing interest in the concept of city regions amongst UK urban and regional development specialists in recent years. Academic researchers have long been interested in developing functionally-based definitions of different geographical areas, such as ‘functional urban regions’, ‘daily urban systems’ and ‘local labour market areas’.
