Abstract

•We propose a multimodal and diachronic transport network accessibility approach•The method analyses urban structure changes favoured by transport network improvements•We focus on rural regions influenced by metropolitan areas and state restructuring•The Spanish Castilla-La Mancha region is used as a case study•Results demonstrate the usefulness of accessibility for assessing regional interconnection, interaction and competition
