Enabling Sustainable and Resilient Road Network in the Country
Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology · Area of research: Transportation Engineering
Abstract
In any emerging economies like India, it is imperative that Country develops an efficient, well designed, maintained passenger and freight transportation infrastructure which has enough resiliencies to meet demands of growing economic activities. Such infrastructure naturally demands high degree of investment and production capacity. The developing economies have inherent issue of insufficient resources to meet these challenges. On top of that if there are no synergies between different modes of transportation coupled with poor resiliencies then returns on investment are hard to justify. Therefore, it has become essential that the various modes of transportation must complement each other rather than competing among themselves. Recently, Government of India has embarked upon various ambitious infrastructure programmes in various sectors and resolute upon that these initiatives not only compliments to each other but also help in establishing more commercial centers and act as catalyst to the new urban environment.
