On 21st January, Eurostat released the 2024 edition of Key Figures on European transport. This publication presents the movement of people and goods in the EU and explores its impact on the environment and the economy.

The publication also offers a comprehensive overview of European passenger and freight transport, using intuitive visualisations supported by concise texts. Organised into 5 chapters, the publication covers indicators from the following main areas:

  • The first 2 chapters are on passenger and freight transport, exploring how people and goods move across land, water and air.
  • The third chapter presents data on transport safety for various types of transport.
  • The last 2 chapters address transport’s environmental impact and energy consumption as well as economic indicators for transport such as employment, prices, expenditure and investment.

 

Eurostat’s new publication provides insights on these topics and more, using a wide range of data on transport
