Question

why is road transport more important than railway transport​

Answer 1

Hey Mate!!

Road transport is easy to access in hilly areas whereas in Rail transport it's difficult to reach such places. Construction and maintenance cost is less in road transport whereas it's more in rail transport. Road transport is better than Rail transport to transport goods for short distance.

But for heavy goods and items like tanks, or bulk goods like wheat from Punjab to Bihar, rail transport is better.

A simple answer to this ;

Road transport is more useful than rail transport as:

(i) Door to door service is most attractive feature of road transport.

(ii) Perishable products can be transported easily.

Hope this helps you!!
