Fields of spatial research on urban areas in the context of organisational solutions to new forms of transportation Urban Development Issues, vol. 58, 53–60 DOI: 10.2478/udi-2018-0023
Keywords: spatial planning, urban mobility, transportation system, means of transportation, self-driving cars

ABSTRACT
The paper discusses the spatial consequences of the widespread use of self-driving cars and the resulting changes in the structure of urban areas. Analysing present knowledge on the technology, functionality and future forms of organisation of mobility with this type of means of transportation,
conclusions are presented concerning the expected changes in the organisation of space in urban areas. The main achievement of the investigation is an outline of the fields of future research on the spatial consequences of a transportation system with a large share of self-driving cars.
