POVEZANOST MEĐUNARODNOG TRANSPORTA I LOGISTIČKOG LANCA/INTERNATIONAL TRANSPORT AND LOGISTICS CHAIN

Abstract

Transport represents the movement of people, animals or goods from one place to another. There are several types of traffic, which can be air, rail, road, maritime, river and pipeline. All modes of transport are very important because they facilitate trade between people, which is one of the bases for the development of civilizations.The transport infrastructure consists of roads, railways, routes, water lines, canals and pipelines, and terminals such as airports, train stations, bus stations, warehouses, transport terminals, fuel depots and seaports. Vehicles traveling on these networks may include cars, bicycles, buses, trucks, people, helicopters, vessels. Operations are concerned with how vehicles and procedures are prescribed for this purpose, including financing, legality and policy. In the transportation industry, operations and ownership of infrastructure can be public or private. Passenger transport may be public, in which operators provide scheduled services, but in addition to public transport, there are also private transports. Freight transport is focused on containerization, although bulk transport is used for large quantities of durable items. Transport plays an important role in economics and globalization, but the problem is that most transport causes air pollution and occupies large areas of the earth.
