The length of the road per sq km of area is known as road density. Major problems faced by road transport in India are:
- The road network in India is not sufficient to accommodate the volume of passengers and traffic.
- Almost half of the roads are unmetalled, which becomes a big problem during the rainy season.
- In the cities, the roadways are highly congested. Most of the bridges are old and narrow.
