The forecast for Germany's national annual road freight transport of equipment and materials in non-island regions shows a declining trend, starting at 82.78 million metric tons in 2024 and falling to 79.58 million metric tons by 2028. This represents a year-on-year decrease of approximately 1% from 2024 to 2025, and about 0.9% in subsequent years. Comparatively, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year period is expected to be negative, reflecting a consistent decline.

Future trends to watch for:

Potential shifts in transport methods driven by environmental policies.
Technological advancements in transport efficiency and their impact on freight volumes.
Economic factors affecting industrial production and its subsequent influence on transport need.
