Keywords: rural development, rural area, transport, tourism, tourist destination, sustainability

The paper aims to find different ways of how to consider a potential benefit of transport to the development of rural areas or tourist destinations. The role of transport is quite often underestimated when creating a development strategy in the target area. Numerous papers and discussions show that transport play certain economic and also social role in human existence. Benefits could be found from the point of view of both transport infrastructure and services of public transport.
