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

There is no doubt that states should allocate a decent amount of their sources to transportation infrastructures. While some believe that authorities should pay more for railroads, others argue that they have to construct highways

instead

of train rails. I completely agree with the former opinion, and I will explain my view.

Firstly

, asphalts are highly useful for a large group of people. They maintain their businesses by driving their vehicles on these roads. According to FTI: the number of cars in Turkey reached 3 million in 2016.

Also

, the percentage of individuals who

use

automobiles for commuting in Europe has increased.

Therefore

, they need more high roads than before.

However

, I think, governments should encourage people to

use

more eco-friendly vehicles, like trains. Due to their carbon

gasoline-based cars. If executives built more rails, citizens would

use

trains more frequently.

Secondly

, railroads are the cheapest way of transporting from one location to another. The University of Alabama suggests that wagons cost %20 less than cars, for a

long distance.

Moreover

, the likelihood of getting killed in a train accident is very occasionally. The ticket company Biletix conducted a survey among 150 passengers, and participants found that trains are more reliable than buses.

Hence

, lawmakers have to give more attention to rails. To sum up, both rail-based and road-based transportations are quite popular among people. These two ways have some pros and cons.

Although

a majority of citizens

use

roads, I believe we should establish a lot of railways for

use

. So, governments should spend their taxes on that purpose.
