2 ноя 2022 г. - (EUROPE) Rail freight is back again: up 8.7% in 2021

Описание:

Rail freight falls only in seven Member States but increases in the remaining ones. This information comes from data on railway transport which have been published by Eurostat.

After decreases of 2.2% and 6.1% in 2019 and 2020, EU rail freight transport performance saw some recovery in 2021. To prevent the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, Member States put in place (2020 - 2021) restrictive measures that had a significant impact on rail freight transport, although rail passenger transport was more affected.

The first signs of recovery were observed in the fourth quarter of 2020 when data pointed to a 5.1% increase compared with the same quarter of the previous year. This trend gradually continued in all quarters of 2021.

In this year (2021) rail freight transport up 8.7% compared with 2020, reaching almost the high level of 2018, at 399 billion tonne-kilometers (tkm).
