Detailed Solution

The above statement is True.
The increase in building activity opened up greater employment opportunities in 19th-century Britain. With the development plans of widening roads, building railway stations, extension of railway lines, digging tunnels, embankments of rivers, and laying sewers and drainage, there was an increase in demand for labourers. In fact, the number of employers recruited in the transport industry doubled during the 1840s. In the next 30 years, the figure doubled once more.
