In 2023, Germany's national annual road freight transport of goods loaded in non-coastal regions was recorded at 2.636 billion metric tons. Forecasts indicate a gradual decline over the next five years, with values reaching 2.4376 billion metric tons by 2028. The year-on-year percentage variations from 2024 to 2028 suggest a consistent decrease, reflecting an average annual compound growth rate (CAGR) decline. This trend highlights potential challenges in road freight transport efficiency or shifts to other transportation modes.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts from sustainability initiatives, technological advancements in logistics, and shifts in trade patterns affecting road freight demand in Germany's inland regions. Monitoring these factors could offer insights into future transport capacities and infrastructure investments.
