Government should spend money on railways rather than roads. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

While there are some strong arguments against with

this

idea, I still believe that building construction of railways is more benefit than developing roads. The main drawback of putting more

money

on railways is that it costs too much

money

on building a new

railway

Accept space

but it is hard to say that the rewards of railways would be worth to build them. It is not sure that a new

railway

can increase residential incomes beside tracks or help to attract tourists from other areas.

Secondly government

Accept comma addition

Secondly, government

could continue to use roads which have been built already by costing less

money

and it would maximize the roads.

By contrast

, the cost of transportation

roads is lower than that by railways in a short distance and roads is more flexible than railways. Despite the above arguments, I support the view that it is valuable for

government
