Abstract:
As with every thing else, transport too, has its advantages as well as disadvantages. In designing highway systems and planning towns and cities careful thought has to be given to plan and manage the system owing to the limited availability of land for use of roads and highways. From an economic point of view, the transport system in a country needs to be geared to the economy of that country. To be economically viable and efficient, management and planning of the transport system is essential. Transport modeling is used to analyze the current transport system, to learn how it would contribute to the future, as well as to identify the immediate needs for improvement of present transport systems.
