Factors Constraining Rural Road Transport Systems in Enugu State, Nigeria
The study investigated the underlying factors constraining sustainable development of rural road transport systems in Enugu State. Interview schedules and field observations data were purposively collected from 714 respondents comprising vehicle operators, passengers and representatives of transport units of Local Government Works Departments of the state. Principal Component Analysis was used to identify five constraints to sustainable rural road transport systems’ improvement in Enugu State. These constraints accounted for 84.71% of the observed poor improvement of rural road transport systems in Enugu State. Recommendations were made to achieve sustainable rural road transport improvement in Enugu state.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Asian and African Studies (JAAS) was founded in 1965 to further research and study on Asia and Africa. JAAS is a peer reviewed journal of area studies recognised for consistent scholarly contributions to cutting-edge issues and debates. The journal welcomes articles, research notes, and book reviews that focus on the dynamics of global change and development of Asian and African nations, societies, cultures, and the global community. Published articles cover: -development and change -technology and communication -globalization -public administration -politics -economy -education -health, wealth, and welfare -poverty and growth -humanities -sociology -political science -linguistics -economics JAAS adheres to a double-blind reviewing policy in which the identity of both the reviewer and author are always concealed from both parties. Decisions on manuscripts will be taken as rapidly as possible. However, while it is hoped that a decision can be made in 6-8 weeks, the refereeing process makes it impossible to predict the length of time that will be required to process any given manuscript.
