Özet:

 This study examined the connectivity of road networks around rail transit stations in İzmir, Türkiye, using intersection density and connected node ratio metrics. The analysis was conducted within 800 m, 600 m, and 400 m catchment areas around these stations, which were considered reasonable walking distances. Rail transit stations and road networks were digitized using ArcGIS Pro software. The research identified variations in connectivity scores among different stations and buffer zones. Stations in high-density areas like Konak and those near the ferry port showed higher connectivity scores, indicating well-integrated street networks that support multimodal transportation. In contrast, stations such as Ataşehir and Mavişehir, where intersection densities were lower, demonstrated significant connectivity challenges, underscoring the necessity for targeted urban planning interventions.
