The forecasted national road freight volume of flammable liquids in the UK from 2024 to 2028 shows a continuous downward trend. After recording a volume of 2.32 billion tonne kilometers in 2024, a decrease is projected, reaching 1.58 billion tonne kilometers by 2028. This represents a cumulative decline in volume over the period, with the Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) reflecting an average annual decrease. In comparison, 2023 figures are essential to assess initial movements, but the dataset omits these specifics. Year-on-year declines between consecutive years vary but highlight the persistent reduction trend.

Future trends to watch for include:

An increased focus on sustainable and alternative transport modes that may further impact road freight volumes.
Regulatory changes concerning safety and environmental standards affecting transport of flammable liquids.
Technological advancements improving fuel efficiency and logistics management potentially altering the rate of decline.
