This paper addresses places with reduced speed in road transport, such as railway crossings, signalized junctions, roundabouts, and pedestrian crossings, and the importance of their number in deciding on municipality bypasses. Based on an assessment of 10 existing bypasses in the central part of the Czech Republic, bypasses have been divided into 3 groups depending on the importance and size of municipalities. The importance of the proposed indicator – the number of places with reduced speed divided into groups – is explained here. Possible use is illustrated on a case study of a planned bypass of Ústí nad Orlicí validated by a four-tier transport model.
