Abstract
This project work examine the problems of road transportation in Edo State, Egor as a case study. The objective of the study includes to examine the role of road transportation and the problems of road transportation. The road maps of Egor L.G.A for two different periods of 1990s and 2000s were used to produce topological maps of the area to detect the growth from 1990s to 2000s. At selected traffic points on the road network of the study area information were collected on road designed capacity, available parking space and number of vehicles. In all, a sample of 542 commuters and 41 members of Edo State road transport authorities personnel were surveyed by means of a self-administered questionnaire. This study revealed that there has been some development in the road network of Egor L.G.A, but the number of vehicles observed at the selected road junctions exceeded the designed capacity of the roads. The study further shows that trading activities along the roads and lack of effective planning are some of the factors obstructing efficient road transportation in urban Edo. The study suggested that more bus stops and parking space be provided to prevent indiscriminate parking and stopping at prohibited places.
