International Transport – The development of international transportation trade is one of the main pillars of international trade and foreign transit. Various factors enable the supply of goods internationally and foreign transit. Shipping costs influence the price of goods. Many products lose their ability to be offered in international markets due to high transportation and shipping costs. High shipping costs also negate the advantage of transit routes. Do you know that the following factors reduce transportation costs, shipping expenses, and increase the volume of goods delivered to destination countries?
- Technological development and the creation of modern transportation tools
- Infrastructure facilities, including modern ships and port facilities in the maritime sector
- Air transport, with airplanes, airports, and relevant equipment
- Rail transport, with locomotives, wagons, and railway tracks
- Road transport, including trucks and terminals
Factors contributing to the development of international transportation:
Modern transportation tools and technology increase imports, exports, and the transit of goods. Modern vehicles speed up transportation and reduce shipping costs.
Factors influencing transportation demand:
- Population and its distribution: The larger the population, the higher the demand for transportation capacity.
- Income levels and the community’s consumption pattern: These are other factors influencing transportation capacity demand.
- As transportation costs rise and expenses increase, demand becomes limited, and the volume of goods exchanged also decreases.
Types of transportation methods:
- Maritime transport
- Ground transport
- Railway transport
- Air transport
- Road transport
- Pipeline transport
