The forecast for France's national annual road freight transport of metal ores, peat, uranium, thorium, and other mining products indicates a consistent decline from 2024 to 2028. Starting at 145.96 million metric tons in 2024, it reduces to 98.27 million metric tons by 2028. Compared to 2023, the data reflects a clear downward trend, with an annual decrease in the range of 8%-10% each year. Over the five-year forecast, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) suggests a diminishing average yearly decrease in volume.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts of transportation policies aimed at reducing carbon footprints or shifts in demand for these raw materials due to changing industrial needs and innovations. Additionally, the rise of alternative transportation modes and technological advancements in logistics might influence these projections.
