Welcome to Those Answers Inc. Survey on Transporation. According to Wikipedia, Transportation is "the movement of people and goods from one place to another. The term is derived from the Latin trans ("across") and portare ("to carry"). The field can be divided into infrastructure, vehicles, and operations.

• Infrastructure consists of the fixed installations necessary for transport, and may be roads, railways, airways, [...] or terminals such as airports, railway stations, bus stations and seaports.
• Vehicles traveling on the network include automobiles, bicycles, buses, trains, people and aircraft.
• Operations deal with the way the vehicles are operated, and the procedures set for this purpose including the financing, legalities and policies."
