Keeping in view thephysiographic conditions, the study area has been divided into two sub– zones:Eastern Sector and Western Sector and further into six micro zones.Thenodes having minimum population of 10000 along with district and tahsil headquarters and settlements having three or more crossings of national highways, state highways and major district roads have been selected for the analysis.Structural indices like Cyclomatic number, Alpha, Beta and Gamma have been used. Aggregate Transport Scores have been calculated by the cumulative values of Alpha, Beta and Gamma indices.Western zone of the state is best connected followed by East– Central zone, North– Eastern zone, South– Eastern zone, South– Western zone whereas, West Central zoneis the least connected zone by roads.
