Transport
- From the Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopaedia that anyone can change
Transport, or transportation, is the movement of people and goods or products from one place to another place. Transport can be divided into infrastructure, vehicles and operations.
There are three main kinds of transportation. they are:
- land transportation using trucks on roads or trains on railways
- water transportation using barges in canals or boats in the sea
- air transportation using aeroplanes and airports
Infrastructure does include roads, railways, airways, canals and pipelines.
The infrastructure is the network where things are carried. Infrastructure does also include airports, railway stations, bus stations and seaports (docks). Infrastructure is usually built by governments and paid for by taxes from the citizens of a country or region. Infrastructure such as roads and railways are designed by civil engineers and urban planners.
Vehicles or vessels travel on the infrastructure. Vehicles include cars, trucks, trains and aeroplanes. Vehicles are usually designed by mechanical engineers. Vessels do include boats, ferries, and barges which do travel on canals and do use docks and seaports. In the same way that trains do use train stations, aeroplanes do use airports. In the same way that trains do use railway lines (train tracks), aeroplanes do use flight paths.
Operations do control the system. Operations do include traffic signals, railway signals and air traffic control. Operations do also include the government policies (a policy is a plan of action to guide decisions and actions) and regulations (a set or group of laws and rules) used to control the system, such as tolls, fuel taxes, and traffic laws.
Transport and communication can be used instead of each other (someone could telephone a person rather than visit him). But the growth in traffic is only possible because of communication (for example, air traffic control does mean that more aeroplanes can fly). So an increase of either transport or communication does usually lead to an increase in the other one.
Transport does use a lot of energy. Most transports do use hydrocarbons (oil and gas). This can create pollution. Environmental regulations (laws) and low-pollution fuels (for example liquefied natural gas) can reduce pollution.
But as more vehicles are used, more pollution is created.
