Abstract

Examines the relationship between urban growth rates and a measure of an urban centre's accessibility to major centres. Some theoretical considerations underlying this relationship are outlined. This is followed by an empirical analysis of growth patterns for the two time periods 1961-71 and 1971-81. Population change is used to measure urban growth in each time period. Finally, these patterns of growth are discussed.-Author
