In 2023, Italy's international road freight volume of dangerous goods was approximately 596 million tonne kilometers. From 2024 to 2028, the forecast indicates a declining trend each year, with an average negative compound annual growth rate (CAGR). The annual decrease is steady, reflecting a gradual reduction of approximately 0.8-1% year-on-year. This suggests a consistent downtrend in the transport of dangerous goods via road.

Future trends to watch for include:

Increased regulations and compliance costs associated with transporting dangerous goods.
Potential shifts to alternative, less risky modes of transportation.
Innovations in packaging and logistics to enhance safety and efficiency.
