Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than three decades investment in the transport sector has been a priority for developing country governments. With a few exceptions, roads have accounted for the major part of these investments. The explicit, and often articulated, assumption upon which the decision to allocate such large sums of money to road transport has been made is that road transport and development are inextricably linked. The implicit, and rarely articulated assumption is that the provision of suitable roads will lead to the operation of an adequate level of road transport services. If roads do not actually produce economic development, it has been argued, they certainly play a major role. This belief in the ben-eficial effects of roads is not wholly unsubstantiated. Clearly the provision of some form of access is vital for the development of the rural economy. Nevertheless, the studies carried out over the last 10-15 years on the impact of highway investment have sounded a cautionary note. George W. Wilson, writing in the concluding chapter of the Brookings Institution studies on transport and development, suggested that* 'A much more sceptical attitude towards transport appears essential and far more attention needs to be devoted to the set of circumstances surrounding expansion of transport capacity'. 1 The suggestion of a more restrained attitude reflected a growing concern that transport, and in particular roads, was only one factor amongst a large number that needed to be integrated for effective development. The concern to see road transport in a wider context partly explains the move towards the evaluation of the social, as well as strictly economic, benefits of road construction.

Book excerpt: The work is based on author s Ph D thesis, which dealt with the rural transport system. This is mainly a theoretical work which seeks to explain how different techniques of economic appraisal could be applied to transport sector in rural areas to facilitate decision-making. The first section analyses benefit cost technique in detail and seeks to apply the criterion to a rural road project. While the technique is often applied in case of highways catering to modern traffic, it is not easily applicable to rural roads where vehicular benefit offers considerable difficulties. However, saving in operation cost and time cost are accepted as two indicators of benefit for commodity traffic and passenger traffic. Next, monetary cost and revenue are converted into social cost and finally, a sensitivity analysis has been taken recourse to for indicating a range of values accruing to particular project. The second exercise hinges on building a regression model establishing an interconnection between road development on the one hand and production, price level, employment, on the other. Here also a road section in a block area has been chosen for testing the hypothesis. A section has been added on water transport, which was once the nerve system of riverine Bengal. This mode needs to be developed, because it is both fuel-efficient and pollution free. Moreover, it is quite cheap and if properly developed, can open wide market for the products of remote villages, specially in areas like Sunderbans in the south of West Bengal where water transport in the life-line.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book considers the problem of providing maximum access to transport services, and to roads for the rural population of the world's developing countries when limited funds are available. Access is a key factor in both social and economic development. It promotes social intercourse and opens up markets for both the rural and urban populations. Access connotes the ability to travel and to transport goods. The components of access include both the infrastructure and the transport modes or aids that use the infrastructure.
