Abstract

The main purpose of this report is to present a broad picture of trends in world passenger and goods transport by mechanical means since 1950. Estimates of passenger kilometres and tonne-kilometres by road for each region are made and the trends in road transport are compared with trends in transport by rail, air and sea. The report also gives an indication of possible future growth in world transport on the basis of past trends and assumptions about future developments. (Author/publisher)
