ABSTRACT
About Barge Transportation
Barge transportation refers to the mode of transporting dry and liquid bulk commodities in a barge vessel (a flat-bottomed boat) through rivers and canals. Some barges have to be pushed or towed, while others are self-propelled. Barge transportation is a sustainable mode of transportation and is environment-friendly, with respect to emission of CO?
