The forecast for road freight transport in Germany from 2024 to 2028 shows a steady year-on-year increase in loaded and empty road freight, starting at 24.85 billion vehicle-kilometers in 2024 and reaching 25.29 billion vehicle-kilometers by 2028. This consistent growth pattern represents an annual average increase of approximately 0.4%. In comparison to prior years' data, these forecasts indicate a stable upward trend in road freight activity. It is important to note that the transport figure for 2023 was at 24.74 billion vehicle-kilometers.
Future trends to monitor include advances in sustainable transportation solutions, the impact of digitalization on logistics efficiency, and potential shifts in economic activity influencing freight volumes. Additionally, policymakers' emphasis on reducing carbon emissions may alter transport strategies in Germany.
