Road transport is the oldest form for carrying goods and passengers short distances. Rail transport is cheaper and faster than road for long distances, with passenger and freight trains. Pipeline transport specifically carries liquids and gases. Water transportation has inland waterways like rivers and canals, and ocean transport between ports. Air transport is the fastest but carries high value cargo due to costs. Overall the document provides an overview of various transportation methods and their uses.
