ADVANTAGES
The small number of routes generally leads to more efficient use of transportation resources.
Complicated operations, such as package sorting and accounting, can be carried out at the hub, rather than at every node. Spokes are simple, and new ones can be created easily.
Customers may find the network more intuitive. Scheduling is convenient for them since there are few routes, with frequent service.
