Na economia dos transportes estudam-se os mercados, no seu desempenho em tempo, na interação com o espaço e nos reflexos externos, num contexto de possível regulação e sob o objetivo de uma mobilidade sustentável. Esta deverá ser infra-máxima, a um preço moderador do consumo. O transporte é um importante sector e empregador. Cresce com a economia e contribui para que se cresça mais. É um elemento relevante da despesa das famílias e de Investimento. Permite o comércio, com consequências para a organização interna, regional e mundial da produção. Altera padrões de localização de empresas, pessoas e aglomerados urbanos, bem como estilos de vida. Gera externalidades positivas, aproximando ideias e mercados, mas é também um poluidor; o congestionamento é outra externalidade a lesar desempenho, procura e custos, sempre condicionados pelo tempo. As pessoas usam mais o automóvel. Nas mercadorias, dominam o navio e o camião. Também se abordam os projetos de infra-estruturas e as políticas.
