GrowthTransport development and economic growth are closely interconnected, as
highlighted by Banister and Berechman (2001) in their article. Efficient transport
systems enhance accessibility, reduce costs, and improve the movement of goods and
people, leading to increased economic productivity. Infrastructure investments in roads,
railways, ports, and air transport create direct employment opportunities and stimulate
business expansion, attracting local and foreign investments. Additionally, transport
development facilitates trade by connecting rural areas with urban markets, thereby
promoting regional integration and reducing disparities.
