Mass transportations have been widely used by many people to travel and go to their respective destinations because it is a way cheaper and convenient to use. In the Philippines, there are various land mass transportation patronized by many such as Rail Services Systems, Jeepneys, Buses, UVs, Taxi Cabs, Tricycle etc. There are three types of Rail Services System in the Philippines particularly in Metro Manila such as the Manila Light Rail Transit Systems (LRTA), Manila Metro Rail Transit System(MRTC) and Commuter Trail which all usually carries more than o twice of its maximum capacity and most of the time experiencing technical glitch and shortage of trains. The LRTA System is composed of two lines the LRT1 and LRT2, LRT Line 1 (Green Line) covering 20 stations, bounding Baclaran to Monumento and vice versa and LRT Line 2 (Blue Line) bordering the Recto to Santolan terminals with 11 stations. The MRTC System is said to be the …show more content…
On the Rail Services Systems, the Light Rail Transit patronizes by about 1,335,000 commuters entering and exiting on different stations of LRT Line 1 and 2, the Metro Rail Transit holds about 927,000 passengers entering and exiting daily on different platforms of Line 3 and the Commuters Trail has an average daily passenger of 45,000. The daily passenger traffic of buses is about 3,940,000 while taxi cabs have about 936,000 while the king of the road, jeepney, holds the greatest numbers of passengers of about 7,620,000 every day. Nowadays, many private vehicle owners choose to take public transportation rather than using their own vehicles for practicality purposes such as parking, toll and gasoline expenses aside from this, they will help in reducing the rampant traffic congestion in the country and emission of carbon dioxide while others still resort on using their own vehicles for convenience and security
Chapter 14 - Transportation At the beginning of the book, I discussed the motivation for this book. For those of you who forgot, I had a nail in my tire and paid extra for service because I checked the wrong box on the service request form. In this chapter, I am confident that you will get a better grasp of transportation. Owning a car

The US went through revolutionary advancements in transportation from 1800 to 1840. The transportation improvements had substantial effects on the economy and also individual development. People could now buy goods that were made in places faraway because access was easier to towns and cities and people’s experiences grew as they were able to be more mobile (309). The roads were inadequate in 1800, so the federal government funded the National Road in 1808 to establish its dedication to improve the roads in the nation and so then by 1839 the East and West would be tied together (309). Commerce was still inadequate even with the National Road funded which improved transportation.
The mass transit significantly impacted the lives of Americans. The mass transit was a transportation system designed to move large numbers of people along fixed routes. Street cars were introduced in San Francisco in 1873 and electric subways in Boston in 1897. By the early 20th century, mass transit networks in many urban areas linked city neighborhoods to one another and to outlying communities. The mass transit was in the United States.
One of the current key attractions of public transit is that one can read or use a smartphone. When those activities can be done in a private car, fewer citizens may use mass transit. This, in turn, may reduce fare income and lead public transit authorities to either cut services or increase fare costs, which may create a vicious circle of declining transit ridership. AVs are also likely to be substantially more expensive than conventional cars, However, these outcomes are not predetermined, and can be addressed through a variety of policy tools. Jobs will also be lost.
We should think of new ways of transportation because of many reasons. One of the reasons we should have different ways to transport is because of pollution. As stated in “Running off the Road” by Grover Kingsley, “The auto is a huge contributor to greenhouse gas emissions.” He also states that the EPA reports that in 2012, 28% of the emissions came from transportation. Another reason other transportation is a good is a good idea is because Kingsley also described that cars “entrap us in their cost and maintenance, in the stress they produce, in their pollutants, and in their contribution to global warming.”
For the past 50 years as this problem worsened the government insisted on establishing new traffic infrastructures as a solution, but the solution for traffic congestion is not to build more roads, or wider roads because additional roads will only result in additional automobiles. Also building structures such as houses will only decrease road sizes of neighborhood roads. The solution to decrease traffic congestion is to upgrade and better our public transit system. A recent study by the TTC shows that the reason why commuters in Toronto and the GTA would sit in traffic over taking public transit is because they believe that the public transit system in the core of downtown and across the GTA is very poor. This notion of beliefs that commuters have of the GTA’s public transit system is true.
Most public transportation in Boston is run by a company called the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority(MBTA). It runs a subway that covers most of Boston. There are a total of five subway lines in the transportation system, which are the Blue, Green, Orange, Red and Silver lines. It is very convenient to travel around in the city since there are more than fifty
Although we live in a society were cars are thought to be necessary, as time goes on less and less people are interested in getting a license. There are many advantages of limiting car usage. There are easier, more efficient ways to get from point a to point b by skating, riding a bus or a bicycle. Worldwide there have been experiments where a community would be banned from using cars in order to reduce smog. In Bogota, Colombia a program was created where people have been prohibited to use their cars while only allowing buses or taxis.
Behavior Ethnics is the study of why people make the ethical and unethical decisions that they do. It states that most ethical choices are made intuitively, by feeling, not after carefully analyzing a situation, and usually people who make unethical decisions are unconsciously influenced by internal biases. Sometimes I might violate the Behavior Ethnics, which mainly because my unintended neglect towards my ethnical standard. During the rush hour, the public transportation usually packed with people who are waiting for the train coming and getting on.
INDUSTRY PROFILE Transportation is a large and varied sector of the company. Modes of the conveyance of goods range from people head (on which loads are balanced) and bicycles rickshaws to truck and railroad cars. The road transport grew rapidly after 1947. Both rail road transports remains important. Transportation is an essential and a major sub-function of logistics that create time and place utility in goods.
Presentation Logistics is the organization of the surge of things between the reason for starting and the motivation behind usage with a particular finished objective to meet necessities of customers or associations. The advantages administered in logistics can consolidate physical things, for instance, sustenance, materials, animals, equipment and liquids, and moreover special things, for instance, supervise time, information, transport unit Pricing and Quantity , particles, and essentialness. The logistics of physical things generally incorporates the joining of information stream, which ismaterial dealing with, creation, packaging, stock, transportation, warehousing, and every now and again security. The versatile nature of logistics can be illustrated, bankrupt down, envisioned, and overhauled by dedicated diversion programming. The minimization of the use of benefits is a regular motivation in logistics for import and admission.
Traffic is the flow of cars and other land transportation vehicles, may it be a public, private or government-owned, in the road. If there is heavy traffic then it means that there are many vehicles on the road and it is hard to move and traverse. Traffic is a major problem in various places around the world and this obviously includes the Philippines and it is truly prevalent in our capital, Manila. In our locality, this problem is also very much prevalent in the municipality of Daraga. Most people suffer from everyday traffic problems and this problem has different effects to each individual.
