A mode of transport is a solution that makes use of a particular type of vehicle, infrastructure and operation. Usually plastic seals are widely used to protect the good during transport. The transport of a person or of cargo may involve one mode or several modes, with the latter case being called intermodal or multimodal transport. Each mode has its advantages and disadvantages, and will be chosen for a trip on the basis of cost, capability, route and speed.
Commonly human-powered and animal powered transport are the main article. Human-powered transport remains common in developing countries. Human powered transport is the transport of people and/or goods using human muscle-power, in the form of walking, running and swimming. Modern technology has allowed machines to enhance human-power. Human-powered transport remains popular for reasons of cost-saving, leisure, physical exercise and environmentalism. Human-powered transport is sometimes the only type available, especially in underdeveloped or inaccessible regions, and plastic seals are unworkable for such transport form. It is considered an ideal form of sustainable transportation.
Although humans are able to walk without infrastructure, the transport can be enhanced through the use of roads, especially when using the human power with vehicles, such as bicycles and inline skates. Human-powered vehicles have also been developed for difficult environments, such as snow and water, usually there plastic seals hanging on the containers, by watercraft rowing and skiing; even the air can be entered with human-powered aircraft.
While for the animal-powered transport, it’s also used in some towns with bad weather which is very difficult for human-powered transport. Animal-powered transport is the use of working animals for the movement of people and goods. Humans may ride some of the animals directly, use them as pack animals for carrying goods, or harness them, alone or in teams, to pull sleds or wheeled vehicles.
