C
People had to move from place to place slowly, but transportation was easy to access.
D
People had to move from place to place slowly because their transportation options were limited.

Explanation

In the early 1800s, cities had few transportation options, and most people traveled on foot or by horse-drawn vehicles. These ways of getting around were relatively slow, so people generally could not move quickly from place to place. Therefore, the best description is that travel was slow because transportation options were limited.
