Trinidad and Tobago: Facts & Stats

Demographics | Economy | TRANSPORTATION  | Culture

TRANSPORTATION

Roads:

In 2002, there were 8,320 km (5,170 mi) of roads, of which 4,252 km (2,642 mi) were paved. The more densely settled sections of both islands are served by reasonably adequate roads, but large sections of Tobago either have no motor able roads or are connected by narrow, tortuous, and poorly surfaced ones.

In 2000, registered motor vehicles included 54,050 passenger cars and 14,560 commercial vehicles. The Public Service Transport Corp. is responsible for road transport. Trinidad's lone remaining railway, from Port-of-Spain to San Juan, was closed down in 1968.

Railroads:

There is a daily ferry service between Trinidad and Tobago operated by the Port Authority. These ferries operate on once daily basis and commence from St. Vincent Street Jetty in Port of Spain and from the cruise-ship complex in Scarborough. If you chose to travel by a conventional ferry, the total journey time will be about 5 hours, while the high-speed CAT takes 2 1/2 hours to cover the same distance.

Aviation:

Caribbean Airlines runs flights between Piarco (Port of Spain) and Crown Point (Tobago). During peak seasons (especially Carnival time), these are often heavily booked.

There is a secondary main airport at Crown Point, on the western tip of Tobago. In 2001, there were six airports and airfields, three of which had paved runways. Trinidad and Tobago Airways, owned by the government and formed by the merger of British West Indian Airways (BWIA) International and Trinidad and Tobago Air Services in 1980, operates domestic, regional, and international services. In 2001, 1,123,600 passengers were carried on scheduled domestic and international airline flights.
