  2. Essential Question What is the economic advantage of efficient transportation?

  3. Lesson Overview • Economic decisions for four centuries have been based on how quickly a product can get to market. Transportation evolved to keep up with market demands. Trails became national roads, river and sea-going transportation increased in size to take on larger and more specialized loads, and rivers themselves underwent transformation into canal systems connecting larger bodies of water with inland ports. Finally, long distance overland transportation became possible with the production of iron and development of the steam engine.
