Why does most of the area have cart tracks?

Answer

Most of the area in the map shows cart tracks due to following reasons:

  1. It is an underdeveloped village area where agriculture is the main occupation.
  2. Underdeveloped rural areas don't have developed industries, hence no need for heavy vehicles and paved roads.
  3. Lack of infrastructure development leads to people using bullock carts, handcarts, etc. for transporting goods from place to place.
