	Transport Engineering
		Singapore's transport engineering sector comprises the aerospace, marine and offshore engineering, and land transport industries.
		To ensure the continued availability of skilled manpower to support the transport engineering industries, Singapore has initiated new education, recruitment and RandD programmes, including establishing the Centre for Offshore Research and Engineering (CORE) to encourage research collaborations with industry in the area of oil and gas and offshore engineering technologies.
		In addition, Singapore's highly reputable mechanical engineering capabilities have been, and continue to be, vital to the development of the transport engineering industry in ensuring high value-added manufacturing, and headquarters and distribution activities.

		Transport engineering (or Transportation engineering) is a branch of Civil engineering dealing with the planning, design, operation, and management of transportation facilities.
		The design aspects of transportation engineering include the sizing of transportation facilities (how many lanes or how much capacity the facility has), determining the materials and thickness used in pavement, designing the geometry (vertical and horizontal alignment) of the roadway (or track).
		Human factors are an important aspect of transport engineering, particularly concerning driver-vehicle interface and user interface of road signs, signals, and markings.

	Transport engineering - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Transport engineering (alternatively transportation engineering) aims to ensure the safe and efficient movement of people and goods.
		Technical forecasting or urban passenger travel presently involves what is called the four-step urban transportation planning model, requiring the estimation of trip generation (how many trips for what purpose), trip distribution (destination choice, where are you going), mode choice (what mode is being taken), and route assignment (which streets, transit routes are being used).
		Locating and designing airports, seaports, canals, shipping ways, as well as all planning and design for mass transit (bus, subway, and commuter rail) are the responsibilities of transportation engineers.
