Road transport occupies a significant place in country’s transport system. Roads are the most convenient way of transporting goods even if to the interior parts of the world. Road transport may be effected by bullocks, buffaloes, horses and mechanical power. Like road transport, railway transport also plays a significant role because 80 percent of the goods transported in our country is effected through railways. both the road transport and railway transport have their respective merits and demerits.
