Because of the different modes of transportation, technical performance, adaptability to the geographic environment, investment, transport costs, transport energy consumption, fixed asset efficiency, labor productivity and other economic indicators are different, the scope of its application is not the same, so each mode of transport has its own advantages and disadvantages, in the unified national transportation system, each has its own important position and limitations.
Modern economic development on the requirements of transportation is a large capacity, low cost, low investment, transport safety, speed, by the seasonal and environmental changes in the influence of small, in the socialist conditions, the study and correct understanding of various modes of transport technical and economic characteristics of the status and role of the local conditions, a reasonable division of labor, and improve the layout of the transport network, the realization of reasonable transport is of great significance.
