KSH: freight performance decreased in the first quarter

The volume of goods transported decreased by 8.7 percent and the transport performance in freight tonne-kilometers by 11.7 percent in the first quarter compared to a year earlier, according to data published by the Central Statistical Office (KSH) on Monday.

The development of transport performance has already been partly affected by the measures taken due to the coronavirus pandemic, such as the closure of production facilities and other processes, such as the tightening of road freight regulations in the European Union and the stagnation of the automotive industry.
