The forecast for road freight volume of metal ores, peat, uranium, thorium, and other mining and quarrying products in France shows a declining trend from 2024 to 2028. In 2023, the actual figure was measured at XX billion tonne kilometers. With year-on-year decreases, the freight volume is anticipated to fall to 11.91 billion tonne kilometers by 2028. The average annual decline in volume is noticeable, highlighting a contraction in this sector's freight activity.
Future trends to watch:
- Potential shifts toward alternative transportation modes, such as rail, due to environmental concerns and policy changes.
- Technological advancements that may increase efficiency or reduce cost in road freight transport.
- Fluctuations in the mining sector's output, influencing transportation volumes.
- Economic factors in Europe that could impact demand for mining products and subsequent freight needs.
