Rural Transport Home Page ImageRural transport encompasses all the transport activities which take place at local government and community levels. It is composed of two elements, the rural transport services for passengers and freight by non-motorized and motorized means of transport, and rural transport infrastructure, mainly rural roads, tracks, trails, paths and footbridges, and in some cases rural waterways.
