"Elucidate the statement- "In a well managed transport system, various modes complement each other"

Explanation

Transport is a service or facility for the carriage of persons and goods from one bro place to the other using humans, animals and different kinds of vehicles. Such pidis movements take place over land, water and air. The significance of a mode bo depends on the type of goods and services to be transported, costs of transport toor and the mode available. International movement of goods is handled by ocean freighters. Road transport is cheaper and faster over short distances and for doorto-door services. Railways are most suited for large volumes of bulky materials over long distances within a country. High-value, light and perishable goods are best moved by airways.
None of the transport system is self-sufficient. For having a well-managed Stol transportation system a proper link between all the modes is essential. Ports The are a point of collection of goods carried by waterways, they must have efficient 70 ilinkage with railways and roadways so that the goods can be taken to interiors. Railways are efficient in connecting far off places but they can.t penetrate deep into interiors or provide door to door service, for that an efficient road system along with transportation facilities like buses etc. should be available.
