Home›Infrastructure›Status›OperationalBrowse ByOperationalThis dimension groups transport infrastructure by whether it is still in active use, preserved or abandoned. A heritage railway, for instance, is "a railway operated as living history to re-create or preserve railway scenes of the past," per Wikipedia, a status quite different from an ordinary working line. Browsing by status separates infrastructure still doing its original job from infrastructure kept only for its history.FactsOperationalSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonEra of EmergenceWell-attested450 BCE 1OperationalFilter Results61 entriesInfrastructure TypeAllAncient Roads and Trade Routes (1)Arch, Cantilever and Girder Bridges (4)Cable-Stayed Bridges (2)Freight Terminals and Corridors (3)Historic and Inland Canals (3)Intercity and Transcontinental Railways (3)Major International Airports (8)Major Seaports (6)Modern Highway Systems (3)Oil Pipelines (4)Rail Tunnels (4)Road Tunnels (4)Ship Canals (7)Suspension Bridges (5)Urban Rapid Transit Systems (3)ModeAllAviation (8)Cable Transport (1)Freight Rail (2)Inland Waterway Transport (6)Maritime Transport (12)Oil Pipeline Transport (3)Pipeline Transport (1)Rail Transport (11)Road Transport (18)Urban Transit (2)Completion EraAll609 (1)1189 (1)1761 (1)1819 (1)1825 (1)1826 (1)1830 (1)1841 (1)1859 (1)1863 (1)1869 (1)1871 (1)1872 (1)1873 (1)1883 (1)1890 (1)1893 (1)1894 (1)1895 (1)1905 (1)1907 (1)1914 (1)1916 (1)1926 (1)1927 (1)1928 (1)1931 (1)1932 (3)1935 (1)1937 (2)1946 (1)1952 (1)1956 (1)1958 (1)1959 (1)1960 (1)1962 (1)1964 (2)1965 (1)1974 (1)1977 (1)1980 (1)1981 (1)1988 (1)1994 (1)1997 (1)1998 (1)2000 (2)2002 (1)2004 (1)2005 (1)2006 (2)2010 (1)2016 (1)Invented ByAllFerdinand de Lesseps (1)George Stephenson (1)John Augustus Roebling (1)Thomas Telford (1)Operated ByAllBeijing Capital International Airport Company Limited (1)BNSF Railway (1)China Railway Qingzang Group (1)City Bridge Foundation (1)Dubai Airports (1)Getlink (1)Golden Gate Bridge, Highway and Transportation District (1)Groupe ADP (1)Hamburger Hafen und Logistik (1)Heathrow Airport Holdings (1)Honshu-Shikoku Bridge Expressway Company (1)Japanese National Railways (1)Jurong Port (1)Los Angeles World Airports (1)Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (1)MTA Bridges and Tunnels (1)Network Rail (1)New York City Department of Transportation (1)New York State Canal Corporation (1)Norwegian Public Roads Administration (1)Pacific Harbor Line (1)Panama Canal Authority (1)Port Authority of New York and New Jersey (2)PSA International (1)Russian Railways (1)Saint Lawrence Seaway Management Corporation (2)San Francisco Municipal Railway (1)Shanghai International Port Group (1)Suez Canal Authority (1)Swiss Federal Railways (1)Transneft (1)Transport for NSW (1)Underground Electric Railways Company of London (1)Union Pacific Railroad (2)Pioneered ByAllAndrew Smith Hallidie (1)Benjamin Baker (1)Clifford Milburn Holland (1)Ferdinand de Lesseps (2)George Stephenson (1)James Brindley (1)John Augustus Roebling (1)John Bradfield (1)Joseph Strauss (1)Othmar Ammann (1)Thomas Telford (1)MaterialAllConcrete (2)Masonry or Stone (1)Steel (7)Heritage DesignationAllInternationally Recognized (World Heritage) (2)Locally or Regionally Designated (1)Nationally Designated Heritage Site (8)Not Formally Designated (1)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 61Akashi Kaikyo BridgeOperationalAlameda CorridorOperationalAutobahnOperationalBailey YardOperationalBaku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan pipelineOperationalBeijing Capital International AirportOperationalBrentford branch lineOperationalBridgewater CanalOperationalBrooklyn BridgeOperationalChangi AirportOperationalChannel TunnelOperationalCharles de Gaulle AirportOperationalConfederation BridgeOperationalCorinth CanalOperationalDruzhba pipelineOperationalDubai International AirportOperationalErie CanalOperationalForth BridgeOperationalFrejus Rail TunnelOperationalGolden Gate BridgeOperationalGotthard Base TunnelOperationalGrand Canal (China)OperationalGrand Trunk RoadOperationalHaneda AirportOperationalHartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International AirportOperationalHeathrow AirportOperationalHolland TunnelOperationalInterstate Highway SystemOperationalKeystone PipelineOperationalKiel CanalOperationalLaerdal TunnelOperationalLincoln TunnelOperationalLiverpool and Manchester RailwayOperationalLondon UndergroundOperationalLos Angeles International AirportOperationalMenai Suspension BridgeOperationalMillau ViaductOperationalMont Blanc TunnelOperationalMoscow MetroOperationalØresund BridgeOperationalPanama CanalOperationalPort of DuisburgOperationalPort of HamburgOperationalPort of Hong KongOperationalPort of Los AngelesOperationalPort of RotterdamOperationalPort of ShanghaiOperationalPort of SingaporeOperationalQinghai-Tibet RailwayOperationalSaint Lawrence SeawayOperationalSan Francisco Cable Car SystemOperationalSeikan TunnelOperationalSuez CanalOperationalSydney Harbour BridgeOperationalTower BridgeOperationalTrans-Alaska Pipeline SystemOperationalTrans-Canada HighwayOperationalTrans-Siberian RailwayOperationalVerrazzano-Narrows BridgeOperationalVolga-Don CanalOperationalWelland CanalOperationalSources1.
