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

It is argued that more funds should be invested

railways

by governments. I strongly agree with
this
and will give my reasons in
this
essay.
Firstly
, I think governments should spend more money on
railways
and not on
roads
because there are limited accidents via
this
route of transportation.
That is
to say that, despite the safety measures placed on
road
users, there are still reckless drivers who end up creating accidents on the
road
but trains are limited and their movements are well structured which results in a less tendency to crash.
For example
, only one case of railway accident has been recorded in Ukraine over the past decade but there is at least one
road
accident recorded every week.
Therefore
, more funds should be put into
railways

Secondly

railway transportation than

can be conveyed at once in a train.
That is
, vehicles can carry few persons and trucks can carry little tonnes of
goods
per time but
on the other hand
, trains can carry heavy tonnes of
goods
and more passengers at a time.
For instance
, more than twenty trucks used to carry tomatoes from the northern part of Nigeria to the southern part

but when a railway network was created between these two regions, just one train arrival brings all of the tomatoes.

effectiveness in transporting larger commodities. In conclusion, governments should direct more money to
railways
rather than
roads
because they are safer and can convey more people and
goods
at once.
