One of the traditional aplications of the Geographic Information Systems has been the study of territorial impact on the construccion of new transport infrastructure through the accessibility indicator calculus. In this article it has been applied the SIG to the impact study on the building of new orbital motorways by the accessibility of different job groups to Madrid metropolitan area. In a period in wich we are involved in an intense metropolitan reestructuration process, with all the complications derived, it's very important to know how does it change the accessibility, according not only to the transport infrastructures changes but to the activities distribution, in time to apply political resolutions that connect transport and ground use in order to promote a supportable ovility model.
