Mobility is the way people get from one place to another through walking , driving, etc. using cars , buses bicycles, ferries, airplanes etc. In the city it is the way in which people commute . Mobility shapes a city as size and form reflects the type of transport that is needed.  It also influences structure of cities such as pathways , walkways , streets , trains etc. In the urban city areas today, many are trying to use carpooling with friends , families or co workers as an effective strategy to combat carbon monoxide pollution. Urban cities have resulted in  using buses, street trains and trams or street cars as the main ways in traveling . Due to this high rise multi-storey car parks are being built.

In  Port of Spain there are taxi stands that carry you to various destinations such as Chaguanas, Arima etc.  PTSC Buses are also for the public and most importantly senior and handicapped people to move around comfortably. 

The Bus Route is another way in which people travel. It takes them through the North East areas and back such as Curepe, St Agustine , Laventille etc. 

There is also an intricate network of roads that allow cars to enter and move freely

 Pavements and walkways created to get to destinations faster during work breaks
