What is transportation

 Transport or transportation is the movement of people and goods from one location
to another. Modes of transport include air, rail, road, water, cable, pipeline, and
space. The field can be divided into infrastructure, vehicles, and operations.

 Vehicles traveling on these networks may include automobiles, bicycles, buses, trains,
trucks, people, helicopters, and aircraft. Operations deal with the way the vehicles are
operated, and the procedures set for this purpose including financing, legalities and
policies. In the transport industry, operations and ownership of infrastructure can be
either public or private, depending on the country and mode.

 Passenger transport may be public, where operators provide scheduled services, or


private. Freight transport has become focused on containerization, although bulk
transport is used for large volumes of durable items. Transport plays an important
part in economic growth and globalization, but most types cause air pollution and
use large amounts of land. While it is heavily subsidized by governments, good
planning of transport is essential to make traffic flow, and restrain urban sprawl.
