Road construction and railway construction, which one should get more budget? I suggest that the governments should spend more money on roads rather than railways. Firstly, the expense on road construction is much lower than that on railway construction. The expense of road and railway construction depends on the topographical and geological conditions. In the same site, the expense of railway construction may be several times or more than that of road construction. Secondly, it is much more harder and complex to build and maintain railways. The railway construction consists of basement works, two or more steel paths works, relevant slope upgrading works and other relevant facility works which are used to transmit signals. However, it is only necessary to carry out basement works, relevant slope upgrading works and pavement works in road construction. It is the complex processes and components of railways that make the maintenance work more harder and expensive. Thirdly, it is more flexible to use the road as the transportation method. It is very convenient for the private car users to change and make their own schedule if they choose the road transportation. However, they need to follow the public train schedule if they choose to use the railway transportation. Lastly, it is not possible or too expensive to build railways in the high elevation area and area with permanent ice soil. The Qinghai-Tibet railway which is located in the harsh environment is a good example. The roads were built much more earlier than the railways because of the high quotation and technical difficulties. To summarize the opinions above, the railway construction need to get more budget than the road construction.
