Role of the Mode of Travels in Tourism Development

Development will be defined as improving the welfare of a society through social, political, and economic conditions. The expected outcomes are quantitative and qualitative development in human capital and physical capital.  At that time, economic activities cannot take place without an infrastructure base. The intensive use of social infrastructure, the transport sector is an important factor of the economy and a common tool used for social development and also development of tourism. This is even more so in a global economy.  A relation between the quantity and quality of transport infrastructure and the level of economic development is apparent. High-density transport infrastructure and highly connected networks are commonly associated with high levels of development. When transport systems are efficient, they provide economic and social opportunities and benefits that result in positive multiplier effects.  When transport systems are deficient in terms of capacity or reliability, they can have an economic cost such as reduced or missed opportunities and lower quality of life.
