This paper presents the findings of a research study undertaken as part of the Land Transport New Zealand (formerly Transfund) 2004/05 Research Programme. The main objective of the study was to develop estimates of the main (non-urban) freight movements within New Zealand, by commodity, tonnage, mode and origin-destination. In particular, the focus was on longer-distance and higher tonnage movements; and on existing movements, rather than forecasts of future freight movements.
