Q. Explanation of services that involve transportation of people and goods. Ans. Transport infrastructure consists of both fixed installations, including roads, railways, airways, waterways, canals, and pipelines, and terminals such as airports, railway stations, bus stations, warehouses, trucking terminals, refueling depots (including fueling docks and fuel stations), and seaports. Transportation services include the movement of goods and services, people, and animals from one location to another by rail, road, air, sea, cable, space, or pipeline. Transportation services can be divided into three different areas: infrastructure, vehicles, and operations. A transportation Service Provider means any Person whose primary business is (i) the provision of transportation to or for occupants in Vehicles, (ii) the provision of hardware, software, or connected services (or combinations thereof) to enable Occupants to access and use software or connected services for or within a Vehicle or (iii) the provision of Vehicles used for the transportation of Occupants. Types of Transportation used by people Rural community members primarily use six types of transportation to move around their environment. Depending on the community, some types of transportation may be more commonly available than others. These include: ● Buses, including those that operate within and between communities ● Passenger train service, including Amtrak or commuter rail lines ● Passenger air service, which can be commercial, private, or semi-private ● Personal vehicles like automobiles, including vans and cars for hire like taxis or ride-sharing services, and golf carts or all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) ● Pedestrian transportation, which includes walking and bicycling ● Boats, which may be personally owned or operated as a ferry service Techniques for optimizing Vehicle Route - One of the most common optimization tasks is vehicle routing, in which the goal is to find the best routes for a fleet of vehicles visiting a set of locations. Usually, “best” means routes with the least total distance or cost. Here are a few examples of routing problems: ● A package delivery company wants to assign routes for drivers to make deliveries.
