Abstract
Dealing with increasing complexity in transportation networks is causing problems for Dutch infrastructure planning. Throughout this research, the applicability of graph theory in dealing with increasing complexity in networks has been studied. A case study on the network of the region of Zwolle is done with a subsequent comparative study of the more or less similar network of the region of ‘s-Hertogenbosch. The case study and comparison led to Zwolle in its respective railroad network as the most important of the two in its one hour travel network. The differences between the networks were measured using the contextualised indicator, the betweenness centrality as graph theory derivative. The outcomes of the case study include a framework containing guidelines how to apply graph theory to inter city networks. However, this topic requires a lot more research since it is still in its infancy.
