Question:

Which mode of transport provides door to door services?

Options:

Water transport

Road transport

Rail transport

Air transport

Correct Answer:

Road transport

Explanation:

Road transport is cheaper and faster over short distances and for door-todoor 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. In a well-managed transport system, these various modes complement each other.
