This article describes transport accessibility of Szadek - a small town in Łódź voivodeship. To this end, three major aspects were analysed: potential accessibility, functioning of public transport and effectiveness of individual transport. The findings were placed in the context of accessibility analyses for the remaining 43 towns of Łódź voivodeship, which enabled identification of the degree of Szadek’s accessibility in the settlement network of the region.

Szadek jako ośrodek sukienniczy w XV–XVII wieku
Marszał, Tadeusz
In XV and XVI centuries, Szadek, like many other Polish towns, was undergoing a period of intensive growth and prosperity. Many craftsmen, also from abroad, came and settled in Szadek in XV century. The town became an important wool cloth manufacturing centre on the economic map of Poland, surpassed only by Brzeziny in the Sieradz and Łęczyca district and a few other towns. The growth of wool cloth manufacturing spurred the development of other crafts, such as brewing, tailoring, shoemaking, furriery, carpentry and flour-milling, and trade. The economic position of Szadek was reflected in its administrative, judicial, cultural, political and social functions. In XV-XVI centuries the town was as important as such major urban centres of that time as Sieradz or Wieluń.
The beginning of XVII century was a period of Szadek’s degradation and decline of its cloth production, which had two main causes. The first one was a series of misfortunes that afflicted this town in turbulent XVII century: fires, epidemics and passages of troops connected with wars.
The second reason was the structure of wool manufacturing in Szadek, oriented to meeting local demand and mass production of cheap, inferior kind of coarse cloth, mainly bought by peasants. Impoverished rural population in XVII century bought less and less woollen cloth made in towns. Decreased demand was also caused by development of cloth manufacture in rural areas of southern and eastern Greater Poland. The shrinking demand on internal market for cloth manufactured in Szadek led to the decline of this town’s two-centuries long period of prosperity.

The heraldic coat of arms of Zduńska Wola commemorates the possessors of the town (Stefan and Honorata Złotniccy) and the granting of city rights in 1825. The present sign of the city of Zduńska Wola was designed in 1915. Earlier, in 1847 and 1904, two proposals for coats of arms were prepared, which, however, were not accepted as city emblems. In XIX century, adoption of a coat of arms depicting three bees was considered, and in early XX century a city sign was created fea-turing a factory, a loom and a woman working on it. The 1847 version was popu-larized in the period of II Republic and then in the 1960s by Marian Gumowski. Up to 1976 it competed for the status of the city sign with the emblem designed in 1915. Resolution of the City Council of Zduńska Wola of 1976 put a stop to this dispute, although it comes up from time to time to this day.
