Introduction
This area of civil engineering focuses on designing the physical aspects of transportation systems both public and private.
These systems include:
- urban and rural roads,
- train lines,
- transit systems,
- logistical supply systems,
- air transportation and their terminals.
Civil engineers are often making expert assessments of selected sites for construction, evaluating the structural, environmental and commercial feasibility of future projects.
Following this assessment process they are responsible for creating detailed plans, drawings, schedules and estimation of the cost of the construction and engineering work required.
