The Hradec Králové-Pardubice agglomeration (Czech: Hradecko-pardubická aglomerace) is the agglomeration of the cities of Hradec Králové and Pardubice and their surroundings in the Hradec Králové and Pardubice regions of the Czech Republic. It was defined in 2020 as a tool for drawing money from the European Structural and Investment Funds and is valid in 2021–2027. The agglomeration has a population of about 350,000.
Definition
[edit]The Hradec Králové-Pardubice agglomeration was first defined in 2014 by the Ministry of Regional Development of the Czech Republic for the purposes of the Integrated Land Development Plans, which was a tool for drawing money from the European Structural and Investment Funds. The agglomeration comprised 145 municipalities with about 335,000 inhabitants and had an area of 1,163 km2 (449 sq mi).[1]
The current Hradec Králové-Pardubice agglomeration was defined in 2020 by the Ministry of Regional Development for the purposes of the so-called Integrated Territorial Investment (ITI), which is a newer tool for drawing money from the European Structural and Investment Funds.[3]
The territory was defined on the basis of a coefficient composed of three methods: integrated system of centres (i.e. delineation of commuting flows based on mobile operator data from 2019), time spent in core cities (based on mobile operator data from 2019) and residential suburbanization zones (based on statistics of realized housing construction and directional migration from the core of the agglomeration to suburban municipalities in the period 2009–2016). The scope of the territory is valid for the period 2021–2027.[3]
Municipalities
[edit]The agglomeration includes 152 municipalities.[1]
