Importance of Rural Transportation Issues

This section reviews literature related to rural transportation. It defines rural areas and notes that they suffer from problems with accessibility, connections, and adapting to economic changes. Transportation is defined as conveying people or goods from one place to another. While not required, most communities work to provide some form of public transportation, which is vital as it transports hundreds of thousands of people to work, school, services and healthcare, especially for those who cannot drive. Transportation is crucial for development and eliminating poverty in the Philippines as an archipelagic country, but rural public transportation is a major problem due to the difficulty connecting cities and islands. More organized and strict implementation of transportation system management and infrastructure is needed, especially in rural areas.

and economic aspects. In addition, population density is not a sufficient
basis for determining whether a place is rural or not. Rural areas suffers

the global changes in the economic market [Link] on the other
hand, can be defined as “an act, process,or instance of transporting or being
transported” and “means of conveyance from one place to another”
(Merriam Webster Dictionary). There is no law requiring any entity to
provide public transportation,but it is such a vital service, most communities
work hard to offer it in some form. The public transportation keeps the

archipelagic country, it is complicated to bridge one city or nation to
another. Transportation is crucial to the development of country, to eliminate
poverty and inefficient productivity. The advance management of
transportation system,as well as transportation infrastructure, should be more
strictly implemented and should be more organized especially in rural areas.
Thereby, these concerns aim to inform every student, especially future
builders and leaders, that our nation’s progress lies within them, hence, they
should be more aware of the status of the economy of the country and the
aspects that contribute to its growth, which one of them is transportation.
