Significant resources have been investigated in South Vietnam's transport system in recent years, most of which were made to assist the military. A transportation study examines the non-war-related investment requirements of Vietnam. An economic model and three computer programs are used to depict South Vietnam's transport system. The computer programs compute minimum cost routes, least cost routing of commodities, the effect of fares and other factors on air and bus passenger traffic, and which road improvement projects are likely to result in maximum benefit/cost ratios. Consideration is given to the probable magnitude of investment funds available, and recommendations are made.
