This research studies land transportation of people in Syria both by roads and rails, focusing on the most important factors in this vital and important sector. We concentrate on the extent of development and interaction of necessary elements to offer distinguished transportation services. We also clarify the situation of the services in Syrian governorates, using figures. We present the situation of the institutions of the public sector working in the field of the public transport, and we study the relation between road transport and rail transport to show the interaction or competition between them in satisfying the needs of people in the field of public transportation. We then study the relationship between the elements of land public transportation in Syria, observing the development of these elements over the past years, and calculating the correlation between these elements. Finally, we present a summary of the most prominent results and put forward some suggestions and recommendations.
