Özet

Recreational areas, where people spend their leisure time, have become increasingly important due to the unfavourable living conditions caused by population growth and rapid urbanization. Recreational areas need to be accessible in order to be available and to increase their potential of use, in addition to the fact that they offer various activity possibilities and functionalities. The purpose of the study is to reveal the importance of transportation in recreation and to examine the relationship of transportation with recreational areas and recreational activities. The study was carried out in Bursa and conducted with "Weighted Criteria Method'. The study proposes improvements for accessibility levels and transportation for recreational areas. This study intends to contribute to the effective use of recreational areas.
