In India, traditionally, due to the presence of heterogeneity in traffic, there exists enormous diversity in the available modes of transport, broadly classified as motorized and non-motorized transport in addition to other special-purpose transport facilities. Among different modes of transport, non-motorized transport such as pedestrians and cyclists is considered the most vulnerable to road crashes of different severities. These modes of transport also play an essential role in transferring cities towards the accomplishment of sustainability. Concurrently, special-purpose transport facilities like cable conveyors and escalators serve specific purposes and significantly affect the transport system for the ease of movement of goods and passengers. This holds a huge potential contributing towards building national growth and economy. The scope of strengthening these modes of transport is conceivable through better planning, design, and management of the required facilities. This warrants a detailed review of its important characteristics and specific planning/operational needs concerning these facilities. Accordingly, this chapter discusses the existence and prospects of traditional and unique travel modes.
