   What are the basic principles of transport geography?

   • Transport geography can be understood from a series of eight core principles: Transportation is the spatial linking of derived demand. Distance is a relative concept involving space, time, and effort. Space is concomitantly the generator, support, and constraint for mobility. The relation between space and time can converge or diverge.

   How are transport modes different from passenger and freight activity?

   • At the same time, however, passenger and freight activity is becoming increasingly separated across most modes. Transportation modes are essential components of transport systems since they are the means by which mobility is supported. Modes can be grouped into three broad categories based on the medium they exploit: land, water and air.

   How can transportation overcome geography?

   • To overcome geography, transportation requires a footprint. Transportation infrastructures are important consumers of space, which includes the right of way (e.g. roads and rail lines) as well as the terminals. Jointly they form transportation networks.

   How has quantitative research changed the study of Transportation?

   • The adoption of quantitative techniques has given a new dimension to the geographical study of transportation. Ullman (1954: 311) has rightly observed that “transportation is a measure of the relations between areas and is therefore an essential aspect of geography”.
