MODES OF TRANSPORTATION
• MODE OF TRANSPORT IS A TERM USED TO DISTINGUISH
SUBSTANTIALLY DIFFERENT WAYS TO PERFORM
TRANSPORT. THE MOST DOMINANT MODES OF
TRANSPORT ARE AVIATION, LAND TRANSPORT, WHICH
INCLUDES RAIL, ROAD AND OFF-ROAD TRANSPORT, AND
SHIP TRANSPORT. OTHER MODES ALSO EXIST,
INCLUDING PIPELINES, CABLE TRANSPORT, AND SPACE
TRANSPORT

TYPES OF MODES OF TRANSPORTATION
• ROADWAYS TRANSPORTATION.
• RAILWAYS TRANSPORTATION.
• WATER TRANSPORTATION.
• AIR TRANSPORTATION.
• PIPELINE TRANSPORTATION
ROADWAY/HIGHWAY TRANSPORTATION
 ROADWAY/HIGHWAY TRANSPORTATION
• ROAD TRANSPORT MEANS TRANSPORTATION OF GOODS AND PERSONNEL FROM ONE PLACE TO THE OTHER ON
ROADS. ROAD IS A ROUTE BETWEEN TWO DESTINATIONS, WHICH HAS BEEN EITHER PAVED OR WORKED ON TO
ENABLE TRANSPORTATION BY WAY OF MOTORIZED AND NON-MOTORIZED CARRIAGES.
• A ROAD IS AN IDENTIFIABLE ROUTE WAY OR PATH BETWEEN TWO OR MORE PLACES. THIS MODE OF TRANSPORT
HELPS TO TRANSFER THE GOODS FROM ONE PLACE TO ANOTHER PLACE BY ROAD THROUGH VARIOUS METHODS
LIKE AUTO, BUSES, TRUCKS, CARGOS, AND OTHER SUITABLE FACTORS.
• IN ROAD TRANSPORT, THE CHANCES OF AN ACCIDENT ARE VERY HIGH AND IT IS ALSO VERY RISKY.
• EXAMPLE JEEPNEY, TRICYCLE, MOTORCYCLE, BUS, TRUCKS AND CARS
 ADVANTAGE OF
ROADWAY/HIGHWAY TRANSPORTATION
• IT IS VERY FLEXIBLE IN NATURE.
• IT HELPS TO FACILITATE THE MOVEMENT OF GOODS EVEN IN REMOTE AREAS.
• IT PROVIDES ALTERNATIVES IN THE FORM OF CAR, RICKSHAW, AUTO, CARS, BUS, TRUCKS,
AND SO ON.
• IT IS GOOD FOR TRANSPORTING PERISHABLE PRODUCTS.
• IT REQUIRES LOW CAPITAL INVESTMENTS.
• IT IS VERY SUITABLE FOR A SHORT DISTANCE JOURNEY.
 DISADVANTAGE OF ROADWAY/HIGHWAY
TRANSPORTATION
• IT IS NOT SUITED FOR LONG DISTANCE AS IT IS NOT ECONOMICAL.
• SLOW AS COMPARED TO RAILWAYS.
• GOODS CAN BE DESTROYED/DAMAGE DUE TO SPECKS OF DUST AND POLLUTIONS.
• IT IS TIME-CONSUMING.
• ACCIDENTS AND BREAKDOWNS.
RAILWAYS TRANSPORTATION
• A MEANS OF TRANSFERRING PASSENGERS AND GOODS ON WHEELED VEHICLES RUNNING ON
RAILS/TRACKS.
• IT IS PREFERRED DUE TO HIGH SPEED. INVARIANCE TO ROAD TRANSPORT, WHERE VEHICLES RUN ON A
FLAT ROAD OR SURFACE, RAIL VEHICLES ARE DIRECTIONALLY MANAGED BY THE RAIL TRACKS ON WHICH
THEY RUN.
• RAIL TRANSPORT HELPS TO PROVIDE ADMINISTRATIVE FACILITIES TO THE GOVERNMENT. THE PUBLIC
SERVANTS AND DEFENSE FORCES RUN THEIR MOBILITY FROM THE RAILWAYS.
• EXAMPLE MRT AND LRT
 ADVANTAGE OF
RAILWAYS TRANSPORTATION
• IT IS ECONOMICAL FOR LONG DISTANCES BECAUSE IT CAN EASILY COVER ALL AREA OF STATES AND
CITIES.
• THIS MEANS OF TRANSPORT IS VERY FASTER THAN ROADWAYS.
• MOST SUITABLE FOR CARRYING A BULKY AMOUNT OF GOODS AND PRODUCTS.
• IT PROVIDES PROPER PROTECTION FROM EXPOSURE TO SUN AND DUST POLLUTIONS.
• IT IS THE MOST DEPENDABLE MEANS OF TRANSPORT.
• IT IS THE VERY SAFEST MEANS OF TRANSPORT.
• RAIL TRANSPORT HELPS TO PROVIDE EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES TO BOTH SKILLED AND UNSKILLED
INDIVIDUALS.
 DISADVANTAGE OF RAILWAYS
TRANSPORTATION
• HUGE CAPITAL REQUIRED FOR CONSTRUCTION MAINTENANCE.
• IT IS NOT SUITABLE FOR HILLY AREAS.
• IT IS NOT FLEXIBLE IN NATURE.
• THE COST AND TIME OF TERMINAL OPERATIONS ARE THE MAJOR DISADVANTAGES OF RAIL
TRANSPORT.
• MONOPOLY IN NATURE.
• IT CONSISTS MUCH TIME FOR BOOKING OF GOODS THROUGH THE COMPARISON OF ROAD
TRANSPORT.
WATER TRANSPORTATION
WATER TRANSPORTATION
• INLAND WATERWAYS: ANY BODY OF WATERS WITHIN THE TERRITORY OF A STATE AS CONTRASTED WITH
OPEN SEAS OR MARGINAL WATERS BORDERING ANOTHER STATE SUBJECT TO VARIOUS SOVEREIGN
RIGHTS OF THE BORDERING STATE
• RIVER TRANSPORT: WATER HIGHWAY GIVEN BY NATURE
• CANAL TRANSPORT: ARTIFICIAL WATERWAYS CONSTRUCTED FOR THE PURPOSE OF NAVIGATION AND
IRRIGATION
• OCEAN TRANSPORT: DAGAT
• COASTAL SHIPPING/COASTAL TRADE: CHEAPER, SPEEDY, FLEXIBLE AND ECONOMICAL FORM OF
TRANSPORT FOR THE MOVEMENT OF BULKY AND HEAVY CARGOES. MOVEMENT OF CARGO AND
PASSENGERS MAINLY BY SEA ALONG COAST WITHOUT CROSSING AN OCEAN
WATER TRANSPORTATION
• OVERSEAS SHIPPING:
• LINER: SHIPS WHO FOLLOW DEFINED ROUTES WITH FIXED PLACES AND FIXED TIME TABLE
• PASSENGER
• CARGO
• TRAMP: SHIPS WHICH HAVE NO SET ROUTES OR FIXED TIME CABLE
• TANK: SPEACIAL SEA CARRIER OF CRUDE OIL IN VERY LARGE QUANTITY
 ADVANTAGE OF WATER TRANSPORTATION
• IT IS THE VERY CHEAPEST OR EASIEST MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION.
• GOODS IN BULK ARE TRANSPORTED.
• IT PROMOTES FOREIGN OR INTERNATIONAL TRADE.
• IT CAN EASILY CARRY A HUGE QUANTITY OF GOODS SUCH AS TIMBER AND COAL.
• IN COMPARISON TO OTHER TRANSPORT, THE RISKS CAPACITY IS VERY LOW.
 DISADVANTAGE OF WATER
TRANSPORTATION
• ONE OF THE DRAWBACKS IS THERE IS A DELAY IN THE MOVEMENT OF GOODS FROM ONE
PLACE TO ANOTHER.
• PERFORMANCE IS AFFECTED BY SEASONAL VARIATIONS.
• IT CAN BE USED IN A LIMITED AREA OF OPERATIONS BECAUSE IT CAN ONLY RUN ON SEAS OR
OCEANS.
• WATER TRANSPORT IS VERY UNSUITABLE FOR SMALL BUSINESSES BECAUSE IT CARRIES A
SMALL NUMBER OF GOODS
AIR TRANSPORTATION
AIR TRANSPORTATION
• THE DISTINCT ADVANTAGE OF AIR TRANSPORT IS SPEED AND SUITABILITY. IT IS VERY
USEFUL FOR LESS WORKING GOODS WITH A HIGH VALUE OF THE PRICE. AIR TRANSPORT IS
ALSO KNOWN AS AVIATION.
• THE IMPORTANT CHARACTERISTIC OF AIR TRANSPORT IS THAT DOES NOT NEED A
PARTICULAR SURFACE TRACK FOR ITS WORKING OPERATIONS. IT IS THE FASTEST MEANS
OF TRANSPORTATION. BUT THE COST OF OPERATIONS IS VERY HIGH ACCORDING TO OTHER
MODES.
• AIR FREIGHT (CARGO PLANE), HELICOPTER AND COMMERCIAL JET
IMPORTANCE OF AIR TRANSPORT
IN THE PHILIPPINES
• THE AIR TRANSPORT SECTOR MAKES A MAJOR CONTRIBUTION TO THE PHILIPPINE
ECONOMY
• AIR TRANSPORTATION FACILITATES EXPORTS, FOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENT AND
TOURISM
• THE AIR TRANSPORT SECTOR CONNECTS PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD
• EASE TO TRAVEL, COST COMPETITIVENESS AND INFRASTRUCTURE ARE VITALLY
IMPORTANT
 ADVANTAGE OF AIR TRANSPORTATION
• FASTEST MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION.
• USEFUL MOVING THE GOODS IN THE AMOUNT OF BULK.
• EACH AND EVERY AREA OF ACCESSIBLE.
• VITAL FOR NATIONAL SECURITY AND DEFENSE.
• VERY USEFUL IN EARTHQUAKES AND OTHER FLOODS.
• IT PROVIDES AN EFFICIENT, REGULAR, AND QUICK SERVICE.
• IT IS VERY SUITABLE FOR EMERGENCY SERVICES
 DISADVANTAGE OF AIR TRANSPORTATION
• THE LARGE CAPITAL INVESTMENT NEEDED.
• NOT SUITABLE FOR WORKING GOODS.
• MAY BE AFFECTED BY RAINS.
• RISKS OF ACCIDENTS ARE HIGHEST.
• THIS MODE OF TRANSPORT REQUIRES A SPECIALIZED SKILL AND A HIGH DEGREE OF
TRAINING FOR ITS WORKING OPERATIONS.
OTHER MODES
PIPELINE TRANSPORTATION
• PIPELINES TRANSPORTATION IS USED FOR SENDING THE LIQUIDS AND GASES FROM
ONE PLACE TO ANOTHER PLACE. THROUGH THIS MEANS OF TRANSPORT, WE CAN
ALSO SEND CHEMICALS, BIOFUELS, AND NATURAL GASES.
ADVANTAGE OF PIPELINE TRANSPORTATION
• THEY ARE VERY FLEXIBLE IN TRANSPORTING LIQUIDS AND GASES.
• IT CONSUMES LOW ENERGY POWER.
• IT NEEDS A LIMITED AREA OF MAINTENANCE.
• PIPELINES ARE VERY SAFE AND ACCIDENT-FREE TRANSPORT.
 DISADVANTAGE OF PIPELINE
TRANSPORTATION
• IT IS NOT FLEXIBLE IN NATURE.
• IT IS RESTRICTED IN A LIMITED AREA OF WORK.
• DIFFICULT TO MAKE SECURITY ARRANGEMENTS FOR THIS TRANSPORT
 CABLE TRANSPORT

IS BROAD MODE WHERE VEHICLES ARE PULLED BY

CABLES INSTEAD OF AN INTERNAL POWER SOURCE
 SPACE TRANSPORT

TRANSPORT OUT OF EARTH’S ATMOSPHERE INTO

OUTER SPACE BY MEANS OF A SPACECRAFT
 UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE

•ALSO KNOWN AS DRONE TRANSPORT

•USED FOR MEDICINE TRANSPORTATION IN LEAST
DEVELOPED COUNTRIES WITH INADEQUATE
INFASTRUCTURE
