In other words, transportation can have a direct influence on the performance, economic viability, and overall growth of an organisation. If transportation functions significantly impact social, economic, and organisations’ viability, it is assumed that any disruption will have an invert effect. This textbook aims to present cases of transportation function in relation to the Southern African context.
