This bachelor thesis evaluates the use of railway transport in Vysočina region based on the everyday commuting to work and school. In theoretical part of thesis are presents basis of the spatial interactions with an emphasis on transport interactions and gravity models. Another chapter describe the evolution railway transport and assessment of the current position of railway transport in the Czech Republic. The methodology part describes the data base including its shortcomings and also presents the methods of processing this thesis. The main aim of analytical part is creating model of transport relations focusing on railway transport in Vysočina region. Then this model is confronted with another inter-urban interactions in Vysočina region (e.g.connections public transport). The last part of this thesis evaluates the spatial interactions between commuting centers in Vysočina region, in light of the theoretical spatial relationships, the real direct train connections, the real direct bus connections and the movement of passenger cars.
