
Transport is a pillar of all economic, social
and culture life.

Over 70% of our citizens live in towns and
cities; over 85% of the Argentina GDP is
generated in urban areas, thus specific subthemes such as rural economic development
and national economic growth and physical
planning and development of urban and rural
settlements should be considered
