The Geography of Transport Systems
The spatial organization of transportation and mobility
Overview
The mobility of passengers and freight is fundamental to economic and social activities such as commuting, manufacturing, distributing goods, or supplying energy. Each movement has a purpose, an origin, a potential set of intermediate locations, and a destination. Mobility is supported and driven by transport systems which are composed of infrastructures, modes, and terminals. They enable individuals, institutions, corporations, regions, and nations to interact and assume economic, social, cultural, or political activities. Understanding how mobility is linked with the geography of transportation is the main purpose of this textbook.
