Roads still have far fewer staff per mile than railways, however you measure. In turn, that makes them cheaper.

- froddd 2y agoIs there a source for this? Is this source heavily context-dependant?
- _visgean 2y agoLol, that depends heavily what you consider staff. E.g. look at freight, if you move cargo by trucks you need 1 staff member (sometimes called drivers) per truck. Train on the other hand needs only 2 people per hundreds of meters of train... Even worse for individual car transport. You need one staff (driver) per vehicle...
