Abstract

There has been significant growth in Haryana's road transport sector since the establishment of the Haryana state. As of 2001, approximately 23 000 km of roads connect Haryana to towns and towns and neighboring states. Today over 99.88% of villages have metal roads, and the density of the road stands at around 63.8 km per 100 sq. Region of kilometers. The county, however, is experiencing very higher economic growth compared with other India states. That's why the vehicles on these available roads are high in number. According to the available information for the years 2003-2004, approximately 5763 motor vehicles are accommodated over an area of 100 km2. Although, as at 31 March 2004, there were 25, 47,910 registered vehicles, there were currently 28, 53,667 on Haryana satellite roads. This shows a considerable proportion of traffic passes through the country of Haryana. This high traffic volume could cause road accidents, leading to huge economic and human resource losses if adequate transport facilities are not available. According to statistics, in 2006-07 around ten thousand vehicles in the various part of the State participated in road accidents. Unfortunately, during that time 4,291 people were killed and 8,471 injured as a result of road accidents. This study aims at promoting and supporting the regional economic development, providing connections to all parts of the region, increasing safety and facilitating the transport of both passengers and goods through decreasing delays.
