Multi-Modal Transportation

Multi-modal transportation refers to using different types of transport—such as trains, buses, cars, bicycles, and ships—to move people or goods efficiently and seamlessly. It involves coordinating these modes within a connected system, often using shared infrastructure, schedules, and tickets, to facilitate smoother journeys and reduce costs, congestion, and environmental impact. For example, a person might cycle to a train station, take the train to a city, then use a bus or taxi to reach their final destination. This integrated approach optimizes travel options, making transportation more flexible, sustainable, and efficient.
