In 2023, Poland dominated the European road freight volume of the machining sector with 77.1 million tonne kilometers, despite a slight decline of 2.86%. The Czech Republic followed with a modest increase of 3.34%. Spain saw a significant surge of 67.03%, signaling strong growth, while Slovenia and Slovakia faced major declines of 15.59% and 23.14%, respectively.
