Abstract
The question was how this type would behave in the conditions of the Czech Republic. This paper describes the principles of the EVA model and shows its use for the Jeseník District which was chosen as a testing area. Then the impacts of two infrastructure projects are evaluated. The transport model was made in the software package VISUM and for the preparing of the supply in the public transport the software FBS was used.
The main contribution of the article is to describe the use of EVA model in a new environment - in transport planning in the Czech Republic - on the basis of application in Jesenik district. This approach is in transport modeling in the Czech Republic used very narrow - remain traditional methods based on comprehensive quantitative load of infrastructure. This approach does not allow an optimal selection of infrastructure adjustments based on actual and expected traffic flows. Authors have shown, that the method of use of available data and testing at an assembly EVA model leads also in the Czech environment to interesting and really applicable results.
