3. WHAT IS ROADWAYS?
 Roadways serve a vital purpose in any country
and nation.
 They allow people and automotive to transverse
a diverse range of lands so that they can reach
their destination without any hindrance.
 Roadways are an important form of
infrastructure that is ideal and necessary in any
area.
 First Known Use of roadway 1598.

4. WHAT IS RAILWAY?
 Rail transport (also known as train transport) is a means of transferring
passengers and goods on wheeled vehicles running on rails, which are located
on tracks. In contrast to road transport, where the vehicles run on a prepared
flat surface, rail vehicles (rolling stock) are directionally guided by the tracks
on which they run.
 Tracks usually consist of steel rails, installed on sleepers (ties) set in ballast,
on which the rolling stock, usually fitted with metal wheels, moves. Other
variations are also possible, such as "slab track", in which the rails are
fastened to a concrete foundation resting on a prepared subsurface.
 Rolling stock in a rail transport system generally encounters lower frictional
resistance than rubber-tired road vehicles, so passenger and freight cars
(carriages and wagons) can be coupled into longer trains.
 The operation is carried out by a railway company, providing transport
between train stations or freight customer facilities. Power is provided
by locomotives which either draw electric power from a railway electrification
system or produce their own power.

5.  Construction cost of roads is much lower than
railway lines.
 Roads can be constructed easily in hilly terrains
and undulating topography.
 Roadways act as a feeder to other modes of
transport, as they provide a link between railway
stations, air and sea ports.
 Road transport is economical in transportation of
few persons and relatively smaller amount of
goods over short distances.

RAILWAYS IN INDIAN ECONOMY
1. Indian railway is a labor intensive industry having a
workforce of over 13.6 lakhs employees.
2. Indian railways are not only generating formal
employment but also a large scale of informal
employment through its forward and backward
linkages. Service sector is gradually improving its
share in employment.

degradation are significantly lower in rail.
