RANDAL MANGHAM FOURTH POINT AGENDA

TO ADVANCE TRANSPORTATION AND COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT

Randal Mangham has a vast knowledge on the importance of the transport system in the economic development of Dekalb District. That’s why he included it in his five-point agenda. Transportation Advancement and Improvement is very essential in economic development. It will help to improve the welfare of the people of Dekalb District through appropriate social, economic and political conditions. The expected result of an improved transport system is qualitative and quantitative improvements in human capital as well as physical capital.

 

The transport sector is a vital economic component and a unique tool for development. The relationship between the quality and quantity of the transportation infrastructure and their economic development level is apparent. If the transport system of a district is efficient, it will increase social and economic opportunities. This will also lead to other benefits like better accessibility to the market place, job creation, and additional investments. On the contrary, when transport systems are inefficient regarding reliability or capacity, it will have a bad effect on economic cost like missed or reduced opportunities and the high cost of living. Effective transport system reduces expenditures in most economic sectors, while ineffective transportation will increase these expenses. Additionally, the effects of transportation are usually unforeseen. It can have an unintended consequences. For example, congestion is an unexpected and unforeseen circumstance in providing for low-cost transportation infrastructure to the users. Moreover, congestion also indicates that the economy is growing, and the available infrastructure is having difficulties in controlling the rising mobility demands. Transportation bears an important environmental and social load. This can never be neglected. To assess the economic importance of transport system, it will require a categorization of the impact type that it conveys.

Transportation links up all the other factors of production in a way that it connects the producers and consumers. The result is usually a more effective production division by exploiting the geographical comparative advantages. It will also develop the economies of scope and scale. The productivity of capital, space, and labor is thus improved with the efficiency of personal mobility. Economic growth is substantially linked with developments in transportation. Although transportation is an intensive infrastructural activity, hard assets should be supported by a series of soft assets, like information and management systems. Randal Mangham will decide how to operate the transport systems in a way to optimize benefits and reduce expenses and inconvenience. Transportation advancement and improvement play a significant role in bringing the positive change that took place since the starting of the industrial revolution. This revolution enhances the growth of economic opportunities.

At any stage of human development, a particular type of transportation technology is developed or adapted with some beneficial economic impacts. Randal Mangham will try his best to ensure that the transportation sector of Dekalb District is well improved and advanced. He will achieve this by expanding MARTA, reducing traffic congestion, and addressing potholes and sidewalks issues. If the transport system is improved, it will have a big positive effect on the Dekalb District.
