I-Answer each one in 300 word minimum with APA, peer reviewed references. Original, graduate work
1-Transportation has an irrefutable importance to an economy. Explain transportation's role in an economy. Support your claim with evidence of transportation's impact on an economy (provide a positive or negative example). Conclude with a summary of the trends supporting the importance of transportation.
2- Intermodal supply within the transport demand function can vary according to the nature of what is being transported, such as passengers, freight, and information. This is about supply and demand. For all 3 modes, what are some of the criteria or attributes of these functions that could cause the transportation to vary? Use some simple examples from your experience to answer this question and not just list items from the text.
3- Expand on the 5th wave of technology innovation by giving some clear examples of information technology that we could say is helping shape this definition. And, do you agree with the timeframe for this 5th wave as being 1990-2020. Compare and contrast.
4- This week we have been learning about the economic impact of different transportation modes. A looming question is passengers or freight. We have seen many of the modes share freight and passengers without difficulties and yet others that separate the two. Compare and contrast the advantages and disadvantages of both philosophies.
5- Terminals are essential links in the transportation chain. Discuss location choices for terminals and expand on the economic functions terminals serve. Discuss the relation of terminals to intermodal transportation.
6- Analyze the role of the World Trade Organization (WTO) in international trade and freight distribution. Provide an example.
7- While the causes of congestion might be understood the solutions may not be. Do you agree or disagree? State your views in terms of transportation geography. (Note: Carefully explore what the term 'congestion' means before you answer.)
8- What is the environmental impact of the world's ever increasing demand for transportation (direct and indirect)?
II- Traffic Network Analysis PPT which transportation network type is appropriate to use in the traffic analysis of your city if you were a traffic planner. As an example, if you were to use Washington, the networks to consider might be relative location (near the Potomac) and type of traffic. Describe your city's traffic in some detail and then choose the appropriate network(s). In a Power Point Presentation, create a minimum of a 12-slide presentation on the above situation. This presentation must be in APA format with appropriate references cited. Remember that Wikipedia is not a credible academic resource - please use the university library. APA peer reviewed references are required and original and graduate level work is a must.
