The forecast for China's national railway freight ton-kilometers traffic of cement indicates a gradual decline from 2024 to 2028. In 2023, the recorded traffic was higher than forecasted values for 2024 and beyond. The year-on-year variation shows a decrease, with traffic values slightly reducing each year, reflecting a downward trend. A five-year Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) also suggests a modest decline in cement rail transport activities.
Future trends to watch for:
- Potential impact of infrastructure investments on cement demand.
- Shifts in construction practices and material usage.
- Regulatory changes affecting rail logistics and cement production.
