The main scientific achievements of the book were:  to address accessibility planning in this new Eurocity, taking into account the institutional and operational aspects of planning of both municipalities and of both planning systems; the local and the regional levels of trans-border interactions;  to apply the concepts of one or more accessibility tools in use in the COST Action to address one or more planning problems that are in the current planning agenda of the Eurocity and of the Euroregion: o local accessibility to the health care system; o local accessibility to the cultural and sports facilities network; o local transit accessibility; o regional/ transnational accessibility;  to plan the application of the methodologies developed and tested in the COST Action in this transborder, multi-national planning context.
