A transport network is basically defined as a set of connected nodes and links allowing the circulation of goods and/or individuals. Traditionally studied for itself and in rather abstract ways through graph-theoretical and economic lenses, the transport network has increasingly been defined as one component only, albeit crucial, of wider logistical, territorial, and societal realities.
