| Summary, etc | There is large evidence on efforts that are aimed at informing on benefits of institutional delivery in reducing maternal mortality. However, the critical role of transport infrastructure in accessing and improving maternal care in India is underexplored. This paper discusses how different dimensions related to transport infrastructure create barriers in accessing maternal healthcare services. Empirical analysis show distance, absence of transport, choice of the mode of transport and its cost often increase barriers for women in accessing health facilities. Such transport-related barriers are often higher among socio-economically vulnerable and rural women. Attention to mobility and transport while designing maternal care policies will contribute to improving lives of mothers and children.- Reproduced https://www.epw.in/journal/2024/36/national-family-health-survey-5/transportation-barriers-accessing-maternal-care.html |
