Transportation
in India
India
has Asia's largest and most comprehensive railroad lines and is one of the
largest in the world as well. The railroads cover 62,660 km (38,935 m) of
track as of 1995 and are publicly controlled.
The
roads in India in 1996 covered 2.1 million km (1.3 million m) with about half
being paved. Bus companies are publicly owned are are operated by the
state. Almost 40 percent of the traffic on roads traveled on national
highways, which make up about 2 percent of India's total road length.
With
the economic reforms in 1991, the domestic air service was opened to private
airlines, thus creating competition for the publicly owned airlines. A
result of this change, was that air service increased.
