TRANSPORTATION
PROBLEM IN EDO STATE: A CASE STUDY OF UHUNMWONDE LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA, EDO
STATE
CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
One of the
challenges to the economics and special well being of Nigerian in the past five
years is the steady decline in the number of transport facilities nation wide.
Nigeria is presently on the verge of an imminent crisis and a state of
paralysis in transportation. This is particularly manifested the problems being
experienced in our transportation modes such as airways, road and water ways
are all over abrasive and are greatly experiencing a number of bottlenecks, and
shortage either in rolling (Stocks, number of available public and private
vehicles as well as shortage of space parks).
Bye and
large, it should be noted that the nature of transportation system of any
country is important in determining both the rural plan and the quality of
life. In Nigeria, it is important to note that the rapid growth of our nation’s
population, the problem of urbanization, the growth of industries and our
commitment to rural development are factors that call for an effective
implementation of the national transportation coordination policy.
1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
Nigeria has
experienced phenomenal growth in its transport facilities apart from the fact
that over 20% of the nation’s national development plans, transport facilities
have experienced massive growth with regards to road transport, for example
total road length increased in quantity and quality from 4, 000km in 1991 to
72,000km in 1958, 113,100 in 1983 and in 1986, the total kilometer range yearly
registration of the new motor vehicles grew from 20,000 in 1970 to 190,000 in
1977. this upward increase contrived for some time till 1979 when a decline
became noticeable when only (though still high by third world standards) 80,000
was registered in 1979. The decline has continued and more parifully so to our
citizens since the beginning of the structural adjustment programme when some
price of vehicles have more than quadruped (Adeniyi, 1986). As of now, over 40%
of the vehicles in the country are of the roads, as a result of old age or
inability of their owners to maintain them owing to downturn of the economy and
expensive spare parts. Additionally, another 20% is in a state of disrepair and
may be off the road in the next one or two years. This situation continues to
increase the pressure on public transport system and one goes through
unpleasant sights in our villages where hundred of people walk on foot because
of bad road networks. Since transport is actually the pivot on which economic
growth in any country revolves, the following questions comes to mind: what are
the modes of transportation in Uhunmwonde Local Government Area? What are the
problems of transportation in the study area? How have these problems been
tackled in the past?
1.3 PURPOSE OF THE STUDY

are Incharge of ensuring the safety of lives and the observances of traffic
rules in our roads.
1.5 RESEARCH QUESTIONS
The
following questions will be answered in the course of the study.
i. What are the concepts of
transportation in the study area?
ii. What are the types of
transportation in the study area?
iii. What are the transport problems
in the study area?

problems been?
