ArcGIS Pro 3.0.2: The “travel mode” parameter in the model builder doesn’t have “type”, “cost”, “u-turn”, and “advanced” option while working with “service area” for a “network dataset”,
As per the screenshot below, the “travel mode” parameter in the model builder doesn’t have “type”, “cost”, “u-turn”, and “advanced” options while working with “service area” for a “network dataset”.
Then how these options while working with “travel model” in the model builder?
That's correct. A travel mode is a collection of settings intended to model a particular mode of travel, such as driving a car, walking, or driving an oversized truck. In the ArcGIS Pro UI, for a particular layer, you can customize your travel mode by changing the various travel mode settings, such as the cost attribute and the restrictions. However, we don't have that flexibility in Model Builder. What you should do instead is add the desired travel modes in advance to your network dataset. Set up the modes you want as permanently saved travel modes in the network, and then your model can select the desired mode at the time you run the model.

The “travel mode” option is not available in the ribbon under the “service area layer”, even though it is one of the most important settings that is visited frequently during analysis. It would be more helpful if this option was visible in the ribbon, as it would provide more context for the analysis being performed.
What do you think?
It's there! It's called "Mode".
It's disabled for your layer because your network does not have any preconfigured travel modes defined.
I mean that the 'impedance' option is not directly in the ribbon. It's important for it to be there because it indicates the basis on which the entire analysis is performed
