Transportation And The Future Of Transportation

Both examples proved that transportation was an important factor for the decision, but in some counties and states that wasn't the case. Many had transportation development, but due to a lacking of large numbers and percentages within the other factors, they decided to not support the secession. As states as a whole, all of the states that supported the secession had some means of transportation. Due to the fact that states and counties want to be connected to the larger world economy, effective transportation,was very important. If the state decided to secede without that factor, it would have failed to produce enough economical

The purpose of this paper is to illustrate three technology opportunities associated with the transportation and logistics industry. With today’s constantly evolving business environment, consumers are placing demand on businesses of all industries, and they want products and services faster, with more added value, and delivered immediately. Nevertheless, customers are smarter by requiring more quality, innovation, and choice, and at the same time wanting to spend less money and effort. Consequently, every transportation business has to remain highly competitive in researching and developing innovative cost-cutting techniques in order to save money.

Having a reliable source of transportation is convenient when handling everyday errands. Owning a gas operated transportation can benefit a parent, student or business person in prioritizing there lifestyle. However, the economy is on the rise demanding more money in fuel and oil cost. The price of gas could overwhelm any individual in today’s economy. Gas powered cars like Cadillac’s, Lincoln’s, and Buick’s could break your pockets. Fuel efficient vehicles such as the Prius, Honda insight and Chevy volt could benefit your budget as well as providing a safe environment.

Fully electric cars are the future of ground transportation. The use of electricity in cars will also have a massive impact on future transportation.

Finally I will make a comparison and conclusion of the future direction of transportation development.

Just about everyone wants a car but no one Wants to pay for gas well now thanks to technology we don't have to yes thanks to the discovery of the electronic car people can travel solely on the power of electricity but most people say that Unless some new type of battery is invented these electronic Car are nothing more than a dream but these are far more than a dream and very much so a part of reality But what does the future hold for these cars

What constitutes as a luxury is dependent on each person's individual beliefs, and many people have something that they are able to take advantage of. For some people, they take advantage of material objects like clothing or food, while others take advantage of nonmaterial things such as their place in society or their career. Something that most people do not think of as a luxury, but as a necessity is transportation. Specifically, the ability to own a car. To many people, a car is not considered a luxury, but a right. While everyone should own a car, not everyone has the means to buy and maintain a vehicle. Those who can not afford a car are left using the public transportation system by means of last resort. The use of public transportation is inconvenient when one is trying to travel anywhere in an efficient and timely manner. Too many individuals, the bus is their only mode of transportation and is something that needs to run seamlessly. The public transportation system seems to be used more by people who have time rather than those who use it because of financial reasons.

Transportation from point A to B is one the most fundamental necessities of life. In today’s society, we have many different options at our disposal to get to a destination in the fastest, most efficient way. One can drive their own car, take a ride on a bus or train, or simply walk. However, I fail to include one of the most essential modes of transportation that millions of people use worldwide each day: the bicycle. This two-wheeled machine has played an integral role in transportation for almost two centuries. Today, bicycles provide an efficient way of traveling to areas inaccessible by cars and public transportation. However, bicycles have their limitations. For example, biking numerous miles to work is nearly impossible to do each day, and traveling on busy roads is much too dangerous for even the most experienced of riders. But there is a solution to this, which comes from the integration of bicycles with other forms of transportation.

Public transportation is the backbone of many large cities in the country but it seems the system of transit in cities on the east coast and the west coast are far more efficient and well organized than in the mid-west. For example in Columbus, Ohio there has been deterioration in the public transit system. The area which COTA covers is the greater Columbus metropolitan area which includes the whole of Franklin County and parts of Union, Delaware, Fairfield and Licking Counties. Its main role is to provide public transit service for the local population and take them from one place to another safely. But it seems COTA does not involve women passengers in their discussions for consensus building on new routes and redevelopment of the routes.

The future of personal transportation is in complete vehicle automation. However, the risks to individuals are not as high as the media may make it seem. That being said, it is important for the public to be aware of the new threats involved in driving automated cars. A consumer interest in online vehicle security will push manufacturers to invest in better security systems to defend against hacker attacks.

Exactly 129 years ago, Richmond had the first electric streetcar system and was the envy of other cities across the globe. Nowadays, the public transportation system is confined to just 5% of the city and has fallen behind the standards of our time. (Campbell) The biggest issue for Richmond’s public transit is not being overcrowded like many other cities. Rather, the main issue is the lack of connection between the inner city and outer suburbs. Richmond should be allocating more of the current traffic budget toward improving public transportation through the bus system by adding more, further reaching bus routes.

Gasoline powered cars are everywhere, with 800 million of them in 2008 (Seamans), it would be hard for the civilized world to give the car up for an alternative mode of transportation. The internal combustion engine vehicle (ICEV) provides transportation to millions everyday, someday though the petroleum supplies will run dry and an alternative will need to be found. If we as a society wait until that day to find the alternative, said alternative will be costly and probably inefficient. Electric cars have skulked in the shadows, neglected and abused, but soon that all will change.

The world today is developing rapidly is every aspect of human life whether be it the technology, money or population. This change in the surroundings has made humankind to worry about the future. The advancement in technology nowadays is more focused towards the optimum utilisation of the exhaustible natural resources. The increase in population has resulted in the increase of the sale of automobiles as well.

Transportation today is the life line of any country. No matter how advance a country is, it cannot sustain its growth rate without an efficient and exhaustive network of transport. This might be air transportation network, water transportation network or railways transportation network. All the modes of transportation have their own benefits and cost factors.

The world is in a state of crisis. Many current national and global issues that are occurring are caused by our methods of transportation and more specifically how they are powered. Gasoline, oil, and coal are just a few examples of some root causes. This can be fixed and luckily it seems that as a collective, we are furthering our understanding and advancements in cleaner energy and thereby providing a safer, healthier environment. There are many current companies that are striving for a better tomorrow by moving transportation methods away from oil and gas and towards electricity and magnetism. For example, Tesla Motors seems to be leading the way in electric cars and has even released its patents so that other companies who produce
