In 2023, the transport of loaded road freight in France was at 30.5 million journeys. Forecasts indicate a notable year-on-year decline, with values decreasing from 28.3 million journeys in 2024 to 19.95 million journeys in 2028. This represents a significant downward trend with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately -7.75% from 2024 to 2028. The annual percentage decrease suggests a consistent reduction in road freight transport over the forecast period, implying shifts in logistics and transport dynamics.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Impact of environmental policies and carbon footprint reduction measures.
- Potential for shifts to alternative transport modes such as rail or waterway.
- Technological advancements in logistics efficiency and route optimization.
