Every year, the CNR conducts a survey on long-distance road freight transport (TRM) operated by French companies on behalf of third parties. The survey is conducted in the fourth quarter among a representative panel of 220 TRM companies.
The CNR presents the complete results of the 2012 survey here.
The main finding of the 2012 survey is that French TRM companies have experienced a significant decline in their business. The activity indicator for the 40-tonne long-distance fleet fell by -3.1% in 2012.
