In 2023, the road freight volume for utility construction in electricity and telecommunications in France stood at 100 million tonne kilometers. Forecasted data from 2024 to 2028 demonstrate a consistent decline in volume, moving from 93 to 60 million tonne kilometers. Year-on-year analysis reveals decreases of 8.6% (2024-2025), 10.6% (2025-2026), 10.5% (2026-2027), and 11.8% (2027-2028).

Future trends to watch for include:

Emergence of sustainable and integrated logistics solutions to mitigate declining road freight volume.
Development and implementation of alternative infrastructure projects that may impact traditional freight demands.
Increased investment in digital infrastructure and smart grid technologies influencing transportation needs.
