Good road network is essential for development of cities. Roads are established over land for the passage of human being, vehicle


and animal. There is need for an effective and efficient road network for easy accessibility, mobility and connectivity as it will


enhance the socio-economic development of the society. The road network of Yenagoa describe how accessible one location is to


others, within the central business district and it shows the road distribution link for the interaction of man and other facilities,


utilities and services. It is on this basis that this study has applied geographic information system GIS to answer basic generic


questions on how accessible one location is to another. Social survey was carried out to acquire attribute data through the use of


oral questionnaire and personal observation. The geospatial datasets were georeferenced and link with attribute database using the


ArcGIS software. Analysis such as; spatial search for a particular road; the shortest route between two locations by applying


concept of road network analysis was employed. The overall aim and objectives were achieved based on the spatial analysis


carried out for accessing places and facilities within the Yenagoa metropolis by ascertaining the minimum path travel, distance,


time for effective emergency response services as well as solving travel salesman problem and improve the standard of life within


the study area.
