Abstract

The aim of this research was to determine the impact of road investment projects on the economic activity of the enterprises operating in the surrounding environment, using two road projects located in Poznan and Lublin as an example. The research material was collected applying the technique of pen-and-paper personal interviews (PAPI). Standard measures of descriptive statistics and nonparametric tests were employed in the statistical analysis. Most often only small groups of respondents indicated positive effects of the investment project. The results concerning the time of travel on the upgraded sections of the road, which showed a greater tendency to the positive rating of the investment project are the exception. Moreover, statistically significant differences in the perception of the road depending on the investment project location were observed. The research showed that the impact of the investment project on the economic activity in the surrounding environment was more visible in the case of the S19 road than the DK92 road. The investment project’s impact measured in travel time terms was found to be considerably more extensive than the one evaluated on the basis of the economic activity or the annual turnover.

从企业在周边环境经营的角度分析道路投资项目对经济活动的影响

本研究的目的是确定道路投资项目对在周边环境中经营的企业的经济活动的影响，以位于波兹南和卢布林的两个道路项目为例。本研究采用纸笔个人访谈法(PAPI)收集资料。统计分析采用描述性统计和非参数检验的标准方法。大多数情况下，只有一小部分答复者表示投资项目的积极影响。升级路段的出行时间对投资项目的正面评价有较大的倾向，但这一结果是例外的。此外，根据投资项目所在地的不同，对道路的感知存在统计学上的显著差异。研究表明，投资项目对周边环境经济活动的影响在S19道路的情况下比DK92道路更为明显。人们发现，以旅行时间衡量的投资项目的影响比以经济活动或年营业额评估的影响要广泛得多。
