Urban transport policy in Singapore is becoming more difficult to handle. In the early 1970s Singapore faced traffic chaos‚ a failing bus system‚ little money for infrastructure and acute awareness of space limitations. The answer was a hard-headed “bargain” that offered steady improvements in space-efficient public transport at the price of making ownership of space-wasting cars unattainable for most. This has been widely seen as a success However‚ both sides of this bargain are under growing

TASK 3 COMPONENTS OF BLOOD AND TRANSPORT OF OXYGEN Blood components are red cells‚ white cells‚ platelets and plasma. These can be put to different uses. RED BLOOD CELLS Red blood cell also known as erythrocytes make up 45% of blood volume lacks nucleus and contains the oxygen-carrying protein haemoglobin‚ which is a pigment that gives whole blood its red colour. Erythrocytes are produced inside of red bone marrow. Its main function is to distribute oxygen to body tissue‚ and carry waste

advantages of road transport in comparison to other modes of transport. 1. Less capital quality:- Road transport required much less capital investment as compared to other modes of transport such as railways and air transport. 2. Door to door services: - The outstanding advantage of road transport is that it provides door to door or warehouse to warehouse services. 8. Saving in packing cost: - As compared to other modes of transport‚ the process of packing in motor transport is less complicated

Traffic Congestion Traffic congestion is a condition on road networks that occurs as use increases‚ and is characterized by slower speeds‚ longer trip times‚ and increased vehicular queuing. The most common example is the physical use of roads by vehicles. When the traffic demand is great enough that the interaction between vehicles slows the speed of the traffic stream‚ this will results in some congestion. As demand approaches the capacity of a road (or of the intersections along the road)‚
