Transportation Economic Innovation Length and format: 800 words – APA format Topic Based on Bowersox Chapter 8, Study Question 4: The five basic modes of transportation – Rail, Truck, Water, Pipeline, and Air – have been available for for well over 50 years. Is this the way it will always be, or can you identify a sixth mode that may become economically feasible in the foreseeable future? Please ensure that you identify and explain the the load, range, and cost parameters of this sixth innovation to delineate its advantage over what will become the next best alternative from within the "Big Five". In lieu of a mode that disrupts the Big Five overall, I will accept an innovation within one of the Big Five, as long as you compare and contrast the economic advantage this innovation provides over the current mode.
