The textbook is divided into twelve chapters. The first nine chapters cover a specific conceptual dimension of transport geography, such as networks, modes, terminals, and urban transportation. In addition to these conventional topics, emerging issues such as globalization, supply chain management, information technologies, energy, and the environment are also thoroughly discussed.

Since transport is a field of application, the use of methodologies is particularly relevant to assist transport operators to allocate their resources (investments, infrastructure, vehicles) or to influence public policy. The tenth chapter focuses on qualitative and quantitative methodologies linked with transport geography such as accessibility, spatial interactions, and graph theory. The convergence between methodologies and information technologies has led to many new analytical opportunities, notably with geographic information systems for transportation (GIS-T).

Transportation is a very active field of investigation and application to real-world issues, which are covered in the eleventh chapter. These include, among others, city logistics, cruise shipping, high-speed rail, or the financing of transport infrastructure.
