In 2023, the actual loaded road freight transport volume in France stood at 13.93 billion vehicle-kilometers. From 2024 onwards, the forecast data indicates a consistent but slight annual decline, with projections of 13.87 billion vehicle-kilometers in 2024, eventually decreasing to 13.63 by 2028. This represents an average annual decline or CAGR over five years.
Key trends to watch for in the coming years include:
- Impact of evolving regulatory frameworks targeting emissions reductions and sustainability in transport.
- Potential shifts in trade patterns due to geopolitical factors affecting road freight demand.
- Technological advancements in logistics and vehicle efficiency that could influence overall freight volumes.
