Prague

Per [0] (2001; in Czech), average distance between subway stations is 1038m, tram stops 500m and bus stops 698m.

A related metric is walking distance from home to public transportation stop. Per [1] (2011; in Czech), most of people in the city need to walk less than 5 minutes to reach a stop. (There's a table with a breakdown by walking time and city part in chapter 7.) The same work cites average walking speed as 88.69 m/min, which gives you, for most inhabitants, <450m to reach a public transportation stop.
