Transportation

AVIATION

Public and goods transportation is the backbone of economic activity. Efficient and rapid transportation system stimulates and generates economic productivity. Whereas rail transportation is the most economical mode for inter-urban goods transportation, it is also the fastest mode of urban mass public transportation for cities of population exceeding around 3 million. Similarly, air transportation is the fastest mode of long distance transportation of people and goods. In the 21st century, it is impossible to think of a modern and economically vibrant country without an efficient and extensive transportation network. ECIL has been active in the planning, design and supervision of airports as well as Rail Transportation projects - both urban and inter-urban.
