This report summarizes information about domestic freight transport by sea, and compares the amount of freight transport by the different modes over time. From 1980 to 1996 sea and rail transport have lost significant shares of the total domestic transport volume to road transport. In 1980 13 percent of the freight volumes were transported by sea, decreasing to 7 percent in 1996. For domestic transport, sea had a market share of 58 percent of the tonkilometers in 1980, while road had a share of 32 percent. In 1996 35 percent of the tonkilometers carried out by sea and 55 percent by road. Rail has had a constant share of 9-10 percent of the tonkilometers in this period. |
