In 2023, France's loaded national road freight transport volume was projected around 10.89 billion vehicle-kilometers. Forecasts for 2024-2026 indicate a constant volume of 10.89 billion, with a slight increase to 10.9 billion in 2027 and 2028. Year-on-year growth is negligible, suggesting stagnation in freight transport volume. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over the five-year forecast period remains nearly flat, confirming a stable yet non-dynamic trend in the sector.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Impact of decarbonization policies on road transport efficiency and competitiveness.
- Technological advancements in logistics and supply chain optimization.
- Economic fluctuations affecting national and EU-wide demand for freight transport.
