Methodological note

Definition of concepts

Transport operation
Displacement of a single kind of merchandise from one loading point to one unloading point. Therefore, displacement in the same vehicle of two different types of merchandise is considered two separate transport operations. When the vehicle is empty, this is also considered a transport operation.
Tonnes transported
It reflects the weight of the merchandise transported in each operation of transport. The gross weight is considered, that is, besides the weight of the tonnes transported, the weight of the packing, and, if necessary, the weight of the container are included.

Methodological aspects

Data about road freight transport from the Permanent Survey on Road Freight Transport (EPTMC) issued by the Ministry of Developement are presented. The object of this survey is a continous sampling investigation, its main aim is to investigate the transport operations of heavy goods vehicles registered in Spain in order to be able to measure the activity level of this sector.

Transport operations: when dealing with road transport, the flows with outermost communities, Ceuta and Melilla are not significant, although they are included in the totals.

Freight transport is not included when the origin and destination is Catalonia (internal transport).
