The speed of a transverse wave depends on the intrinsic properties of the medium it propagates through. These could be elastic and inertial properties. For a transverse wave on a string, we need to know factors such as tension (a common force) in the string, and its linear mass density.

Transverse waves can travel through solids or any medium that can withstand shearing strain. Fluids, including liquids and gases, cannot sustain shear force, so such types of mechanical waves cannot travel through them.
Longitudinal waves can travel through all elastic media that can sustain compressive strain. That means, these mechanical waves can travel through solids, liquids, and gases.
