Driving From Trinidad to Tobago?
For those who may not be native to the
country of Trinidad and Tobago, you should know know that it is a
twin-island, approximately 220 kilometres away from each other. Have
you guys ever thought of driving to Tobago and vice versa?
The islands are quite accessible to
each other, as multiple plane trips go back and forth from Trinidad
to Tobago on a daily basis, as well as boats. It's actually not
difficult at all to travel to Tobago from Trinidad, simply buy a
ticket and travel on a boat or plane. But being a twin-island and
situated not that far apart, do you think a bridge should be
constructed to connect the two islands? I can't be the only one who
has thought of this.....Some have suggested constructing either a
bridge or a port in Toco, north-east Trinidad, which by sea is only
27 miles away from Tobago.
This can be linked to the Time-Space
convergence which illustrates a reduction in distance between two
places due to the new developments and improvements regarding
transportation. Places seem closer because new infrastructure allows
it to be more accessible. Should we converge time and space between
Trinidad and Tobago? Should we become closer than we already are?
Think about it......
Until next time,
