This is a lesson aimed at KS3 to teach about the new transport methods of roads, canals and trains available due to the Industrial Revolution needing to make transport of coal, raw materials and finished products safe, speedy and efficient.
Students look at the problems of existing transport by road and river and then look at the pros and cons of turnpike trusts, canals and railways before writing a persuasive speech encouraging business men of the time to invest in ONE of the new transport methods.
