Razvoj in modernizacijo družbe spremlja tudi povečanje hrupa iz različnih virov, med katerimi je najpogostejši in najbolj zaskrbljujoč hrup iz cestnega prometa. Njegovo čezmerno povečevanje ne povzroča zgolj razvrednotenja bivalnega okolja, temveč tudi pomembno vpliva na zdravje ljudi. Negativni učinki so predvsem odvisni od jakosti in trajanja izpostavljenosti. V ta namen smo izvedli raziskavo o vplivu protihrupnih ograj na obremenjenost s hrupom na avtocestnem odseku A1 Brezovica – Vrhnika. Za namen ocenjevanja njihovega vpliva so bile izvedene meritve ob obeh voznih smereh avtoceste pri različnih načinih postavitve protihrupnih ograj. Meritve so se izvajale na merilnih točkah različnih razdalj, in sicer med 10 in 500 m oddaljenosti od avtoceste. Njihova analiza je pokazala, da protihrupne ograje opazno vplivajo na zmanjšanje hrupa do oddaljenosti 150 m od avtoceste. V povprečju so hrup pri razdalji 10 m zmanjšale za 13 dBA, pri 50 m za 8,9 dBA, pri 100 m za 3,8 dBA in pri 150 m za 1,1 dBA. Pri 200 m je bil hrup zmanjšan le še za 0,9 dBA. Med 200 in 500 m je bil vpliv protihrupnih ograj enak nič ali celo rahlo negativen. Na posameznih merilnih točkah so bili zaznani tudi zvočni odboji, ki jih povzročajo protihrupne ograje. Zaradi relativno slabe učinkovitosti slednjih je torej izredno priporočljivo zmanjševanje hrupa na samem izvoru. The development and modernization of society is also accompanied by an increase in noise from various sources, among which the most common and worrying is noise from road traffic. Its excessive increase not only devalues the living environment, but also has a significant impact on human health. Negative effects mainly depend on the intensity and duration of exposure. For this purpose, we conducted a study on the impact of noise barriers on noise pollution on the motorway section A1 Brezovica - Vrhnika. For the purpose of assessing their impact, we took measurements along both driving directions of the motorway at different layouts of the noise barriers. Measurements were performed at measuring points of different distances, namely between 10 and 500 m distance from the motorway. The analysis showed that noise barriers have a noticeable effect on reducing noise up to a distance of 150 m from the motorway. On average, they reduced noise at a distance of 10 m by 13 dBA, at 50 m by 8.9 dBA, at 100 m by 3.8 dBA and at 150 m by 1.1 dBA. At 200 m, the noise was reduced by only 0.9 dBA. Between 200 and 500 m, the impact of noise barriers was zero or even slightly negative. There were also detected some sound reflections caused by noise barriers at individual measuring points. Due to the relatively poor efficiency of the latter, it is therefore highly recommended to reduce the noise at its source.

U I. osnovnoj školi Čakovec godinama se tradicionalno održava projekt Večer matematike kojim se promovira Matematiku i pokazuje koliko taj predmet može biti zanimljiv i vrlo koristan u svakodnevnom životu. U članku je opisan primjer integracije sadržaja Matematike, Geografije i Povijesti na jednom od susreta.

V seminarski nalogi smo preučili koncept trajnostne mobilnosti na primeru Bohinja. S pregledom literature in prometnih strategij smo ugotovili, da se Občina Bohinj že več let trudi usmeriti v trajnostno mobilnost, kar dokazujejo številni dokumenti, ki predvidevajo ukrepe na tem področju. Omenjene ukrepe smo v nadaljevanju naloge predstavili in jih številsko vrednotili. Opravili smo anketo med lokalnim prebivalstvom, ki je pokazala, da prebivalci niso zadovoljni s prometnim stanjem v Bohinju in si od občine želijo več ukrepov trajnostne mobilnosti. Z ozirom na to smo izvedli pogovore z nekaterimi vidnejšimi odločevalci v Občini Bohinj, večjimi ponudniki turističnih storitev in izbranimi predstavniki civilne družbe. Spraševali smo jih o prometni problematiki Bohinja in možnih rešitvah. Na podlagi raziskave smo ugotovili, da se Občina Bohinj prometne problematike loteva trajnostno, z ozirom na okolje in lokalno prebivalstvo, vendar so pred njo, predvsem zaradi stalnega naraščanja števila obiskovalcev v zadnjih letih, še veliki izzivi. In the paper we examined the concept of sustainable mobility in Bohinj area. A review of the literature and transport strategies has revealed that the Bohinj Municipality has been striving for sustainable mobility for many years, as evidenced by a number of documents predicting the measures in this area. These measures are presented below and evaluated numerically. We conducted a survey among the local population, which showed that the residents were not satisfied with the traffic situation in Bohinj and wanted more sustainable mobility measures from the municipality. With this in mind, we interviewed some of the prominent decision makers in municipality of Bohinj, major tourism service providers and selected representatives of civil society. We asked them about Bohinj's traffic problems and possible solutions. Based on the research, we found that the Bohinj Municipality is dealing with traffic and transport issues in a sustainable way, with regard to the environment and the local population. However, the Municipality is facing major challenges, especially due to the steady increase in the number of visitors in recent years.

Rad se bavi problematikom prometne marginaliziranosti s ciljem opsežnijeg prikaza teorijskih postavki prometne marginaliziranosti kao doprinosa boljem razumijevanju navedene problematike i budućim istraživanjima u okviru prometne geografije i prometnog planiranja. Prometna marginaliziranost označuje pojavu koja može zahvatiti i ljude i prostore, a javlja se ako su mobilnost i dostupnost otežane, ograničene ili onemogućene. Na temelju ekstenzivnog prikupljanja i proučavanja relevantne znanstvene i stručne literature u prvom se dijelu rada predstavljaju definicije prometne marginaliziranosti, nakon toga se prikazuju razni aspekti utjecaja prometne marginaliziranosti na prostor i društvo, dok se na kraju rada opisuju posljedice prometne marginaliziranosti. Prometna marginaliziranost može dovesti i do socijalne isključenosti te bi zbog toga morala postati sastavni dio socijalne politike i prometnog planiranja., This paper deals with the issue of transport disadvantage with the aim of giving a comprehensive overview of transport disadvantage theoretical postulates to provide a better understanding of the mentioned issue and to contribute to future research in the area of transport geography and transport planning. Transport disadvantage is a phenomenon that can affect both people and spaces, and occurs if mobility and accessibility are hindered, limited or disabled. The first part of this paper introduces definitions of transport disadvantage based on an extensive data collection and relevant scientific and professional literature. Next, various aspects of the impact of transport disadvantage on space and society are presented, while the last part of the paper describes the consequences of the impact of transport disadvantage. Transport disadvantage may also lead to social exclusion and, therefore, it should become an integral part of social policy and transport planning.

Osnovna vloga prometa je, da omogoča dostopnost prebivalstvu in zagotavlja razvoj gospodarstva na ustreznih lokacijah, pomembnih za zadovoljevanje potreb, tako materialnih kot nematerialnih. Pri tem je ključno vprašanje zagotavljanje enakih možnosti vsem udeležencem v prometu. Geografski vidik razumevanja prometa je ključen za razumevanje posledic prometnega delovanja v prostoru ter njegov vpliv na regionalni razvoj. Danes v svetu narašča uporaba osebnega prevoza, zato je ena od nalog trajnostnega razvoja prometa tudi večja uporaba javnega potniškega prometa. Promet pa nima vpliva le na prostor, ampak ima pomembne socialne in kulturne učinke na življenje človeka in s tem v bistvu oblikuje človekov način življenja. Ker je promet vpet v vsakodnevno dogajanje posameznika, je potrebno, da ima prometna geografija ustrezen položaj v šolskem sistemu. Definicij prometne geografije je ogromno, skupno pa jim je to, da prometna geografija obravnava promet kot sestavino zemeljske površinske sfere in kot dejavnik njenega spreminjanja. Za razumevanje sodobnega prometa je potrebno izpostaviti naslednje vsebine: prometna dostopnost (dostopnost je ključen element prometne geografije, saj predstavlja neposreden izraz mobilnosti, bodisi ljudi, blaga ali informacij) in s tem povezana mobilnost ljudi, vpliv prometa na gospodarstvo in okolje, problem prometa v urbanih okoljih in s tem povezano načrtovanje prometa. V slovenskih učnih načrtih in učbenikih je prometna geografija obravnavana najprej ločeno, kasneje pa še v okviru regionalnogeografskih vsebin. Pri tem so vsebine preveč teoretične in premalo problemske, čeprav dajejo učni načrti profesorjem določeno avtonomijo, učni cilji pa omogočajo širše interpretacije. V učbenikih je prometni geografiji namenjeno premalo pozornosti, vendar so učni cilji dobro usklajeni z vsebino v učbenikih. Avstrijski šolski sistem se do določene mere razlikuje od slovenskega, kljub temu pa primerjava vsebin iz prometne geografije kaže, da se v avstrijskih splošnih gimnazijah prometna geografija obravnava bolj problemsko, učni cilji, ki se neposredno nanašajo na prometno geografijo, pa so manj obsežni in manj strukturirani od slovenskih. Študij geografije bodočim profesorjem pri nas namenja dobro podlago iz vsebin prometne geografije, tako da so profesorji geografije ob začetku svoje poklicne poti dobro izobraženi. Nadaljnjo usposabljanje pa je pomanjkljivo, saj je profesorjem namenjeno premalo strokovnih seminarjev iz prometne geografije, tako da je dodatno usposabljanje odvisno od samoiniciative profesorjev, bodisi v obliki podiplomskega študija, prebiranja strokovne literature, študijskih skupin in drugo. S pomočjo anketnega vprašalnika smo pridobili mnenje profesorjev geografije o položaju prometne geografije pri pouku geografije v splošnih gimnazijah. Z analizo strokovne literature, učnega načrta za geografijo, učbenikov za geografijo in z analizo anketnega vprašalnika smo prišli do zaključnih ugotovitev, opredelili smo prednosti in pomanjkljivosti obravnave prometne geografije v splošnih gimnazijah, na koncu pa smo predlagali še spremembe oziroma dopolnitve. The main role of transport is providing the population with accessibility and ensuring the growth of economy in suitable locations important for meeting both material and immaterial needs. The key question here is how to secure all the traffic participants with the same possibilities. The geographic aspect of understanding transport is crucial for understanding the consequences of transport action in space and its influence on the regional development. Due to the increase of the use of private transport in today’s society, it is one of the priorities of the sustainable transport development to encourage the use of public passenger transport. Transport influences and shapes man’s way of life space-, social- and culture wise. Since transport is part of man’s everyday action, it is necessary for transport geography to have an appropriate position in the school system. There are plenty of definitions of transport geography, but they all share in common the subject matter which is the treatment of transport as part of the terrestrial surface sphere and as the factor of Earth’s change. To understand modern transport, it is necessary to point out the following contents: transport accessibility (accessibility is the key element of transport geography since it represents a direct expression of mobility either of people, goods or information) correlated with mobility of people, transport’s influence on economy and environment, transport issue in urban setting correlated with transport planning. In Slovene syllabi and textbooks transport geography is first discussed separately and later within the regional geographic contents. Here the contents appear to be rather theoretical than problematic although the syllabi grant teachers certain autonomy and the objectives enable wider interpretations. In textbooks transport geography does not get the attention it deserves despite the objectives being well coordinated with the textbook contents. The Austrian school system differs from the Slovene one to a certain degree although the comparison of the transport geography contents shows that the treatment of transport geography is more problem-oriented in Austrian general high schools and that the objectives which are directly related with transport geography are less broad and less structured than Slovene ones. The study of geography in Slovenia offers future professors solid knowledge of transport geography so that they are well-educated at the beginning of their career. Due to insufficiency of the professional seminars dealing with transport geography, additional training is inadequate and therefore dependent upon professors’ self-initiative either in the form of post-graduate studies, reading of professional literature or study groups and similar. With the help of survey questionnaire we have gathered the opinions of geography professors on the position of transport geography in geography class in general high schools. We have arrived at the conclusions by means of the analysis of professional literature, geography syllabus and textbooks and the analysis of the survey questionnaire. We have classified the advantages and deficiencies of the treatment of transport geography in general high schools and at the end have suggested certain changes or additions.
