Freight transport demand https://www.eea.europa.eu/data-and-maps/indicators/freight-transport-demand-version-2/assessment-6 Freight transport grew considerably in the EU‑28 between 2000 and 2008. A sharp fall in freight demand occurred  in the years immediately following the economic crisis and, following a limited recovery, freight volumes have since remained largely stable.  In 2014, total freight transport in the EU-28 was 8.6 % higher than in 2000, but 8  % below its 2007 peak .  It  remained broadly stable in 2013 and increased by 1.4 % in 2014, mainly due to an increase in maritime freight.  Maritime freight transport increased by 3.8 % between 2013 and 2014, whereas inland waterway transport decreased by 1.8 %. Rail transport increased by 1.1%, while road and air transport remained broadly stable compared with the previous year.  The modal share  freight transported over land remains largely constant, being  dominated by road transport (75 %), followed by rail (18 %) and inland waterways (7 %). en Plone Freight transport demand https://www.eea.europa.eu/eea-print-logo.gif https://www.eea.europa.eu/data-and-maps/indicators/freight-transport-demand-version-2/assessment-6 Is freight transport demand being decoupled from economic growth? https://www.eea.europa.eu/data-and-maps/indicators/freight-transport-demand-version-2/assessment-6/assessmentpart.2010-12-01.3839191203?utm_source=EEASubscriptions&utm_medium=RSSFeeds&utm_campaign=Generic https://www.eea.europa.eu/data-and-maps/indicators/freight-transport-demand-version-2/assessment-6/assessmentpart.2010-12-01.3839191203?utm_source=EEASubscriptions&utm_medium=RSSFeeds&utm_campaign=Generic Tue, 19 Jul 2016 10:05:38 GMT Cinzia Pastorello Is the share of goods transported by road being reduced relative to other transport modes? https://www.eea.europa.eu/data-and-maps/indicators/freight-transport-demand-version-2/assessment-6/assessmentpart.2010-12-01.3865313275?utm_source=EEASubscriptions&utm_medium=RSSFeeds&utm_campaign=Generic https://www.eea.europa.eu/data-and-maps/indicators/freight-transport-demand-version-2/assessment-6/assessmentpart.2010-12-01.3865313275?utm_source=EEASubscriptions&utm_medium=RSSFeeds&utm_campaign=Generic Tue, 19 Jul 2016 10:05:38 GMT Cinzia Pastorello
