Transportation Engineering
- It is the application of scientific and technologies to the planning, design, analysis,
operation, and management of transportation systems for a full range of modes of
transportation in order to provide for the movement of people and goods from one place
to another in a safe and efficient manner. (University of Hartford - College of
Engineering, Technology, and Architecture)

Timeline
- Walking (???)
- Early Boats (60,000-40,000 years ago)
- Horses and Wheeled Vehicles (3500 BCE)
- Steam Engines (late 1700s)
- Locomotives (early 1800s)
- Submarines (late 1800s)
- Aircrafts (early 1900s)
- Spacecrafts (late 1900s)
- Traffic Congestion (early 20th Century) *by product of all the inventions*
Transportation and Society
- Economic growth is closely knitted with transportation
- Good transportation also contributes to the quality of life and advances opportunity for
the people
- Good transportation is an investment, and it has its own costs
- The cost of improving transportation: direct or indirect
CE in the Transportation Sector
Civil Engineers are involved in these stages of Transportation Projects:
1. Transportation Planning
2. Designing of facilities
3. Construction (Civil Works)

Importance of water resources engineering
Major Problems Relating to water Resource are:
1. Rising demand for water for irrigation, and industrial use besides domestic use;
2. Highly skewed distribution of water on earth; and
3. Growing pollution of water supplies
Water Resources Management (Methods)
1. By increasing supply
2. By reducing degradation
3. By reducing waste and use
