waterway transport

Waterway transport refers to the movement of goods and people using bodies of water, such as rivers, lakes, and oceans. This mode of transport utilizes ships, barges, and boats to efficiently carry large quantities of cargo over long distances. It is often more cost-effective and environmentally friendly compared to road and air transport. Waterways can connect cities and countries, facilitating trade and tourism. However, waterway transport can be slower and is dependent on weather and tides, making timing and navigation important considerations. Overall, it plays a vital role in global logistics and economics.
