In 2023, the national road freight volume for metal ores, peat, uranium, thorium, and other mining and quarrying products in France was recorded at 13.83 billion tonne kilometers. The forecast indicates a steady decline, with the volume decreasing to 12.42 billion tonne kilometers by 2028. This represents an average annual decline (CAGR) of approximately 2.68% over the five-year period. The year-on-year analysis shows modest reductions each year, signaling ongoing changes in demand or efficiency improvements.
Future trends to monitor include technological advancements in freight transportation, shifts in the mining industry's production levels, and regulatory changes that could impact logistics efficiency. Additionally, environmental policies and sustainable practices may further influence freight volumes and logistics strategies in the sector.
