Będzin - Opis:
- Methodical aspect of reconstruction of tram line in the centre of Będzin and line towards Wojkowice, on the basis of landscape changes (in urban space), is the subject of the research. The research aims at indicating and describing the most important methods used in geographical – historical researches on functioning of the urban rail transportation. The history of tram transport in Będzin begins in 1926 with the building of the first tram depot. By launching the lines to Sosnowiec and Dąbrowa in 1928 and to Czeladź in 1929 the “Będzin tram junction”, the subject of the research, was created and then a few times rebuilt. The building of the line to Wojkowice via Grodziec in the 50s revealed inefficiency of the system existing since the 20s. Thus six-year reconstruction process, however uncompleted, has been started. Next changes in the system of lines in the centre of Będzin took place in the 70s in connection with the rebuilding of the road net and building of the new depot. The routes had been launched a few years before having been liquidated. Since that time the spatial tram net system hasn’t changed significantly however in 2006 the traffic on the route to Wojkowice was closed. While assessing the current state of researches it is necessary to claim that many issues were treated fragmentarily and source material as well as publications on its basis are not complete and raise many doubts. Therefore additional researches on the basis of existing materials were necessary. Due to the remains of the previous routes of tram lines in the urban space in the form of disused elements of infrastructure, which help to specify data included in historical materials, the field method has been chosen. The description of researches carried out in urban space includes: method of carrying out the field researches, conditions necessary for carrying them out, scope of information possible to obtain, ways of result verification, advantages and disadvantages of the method. Dependence of the method on many factors is its significant feature. The state of source materials enabling to organize the work in the area and determine the state of transformations is one of the most significant factors. Such analysis was carried out on the basis of centre of Będzin and line to Wojkowice. During the researches disused elements of tram system infrastructure, which became the remains in the urban landscape after the historical transformations, were listed. The results of the researches were presented in the cartographical and photographical form. In conclusion part the application aspect (the amount of the new knowledge the researches bring in) as well as methodical aspect (the usefulness of the method and indicating methods helpful in carrying out researches connected with the history of urban rail transport) were assessed.
