Dashboard freight transport

In April 2020, there were fewer transport movements than one year previously. More information on a weekly basis can now be found on the new dashboard 'Snelle indicatoren Goederenvervoer’ (rapid indicators for goods transport). It shows the number of movements for inland shipping, aviation, rail, road and maritime transport. This dashboard was created in collaboration with the Netherlands Institute for Transport Policy Analysis (KiM), Panteia, Rijkswaterstaat, ProRail, the National Data Warehouse for Traffic Information (NDW), Schiphol, Royal Dirkzwager and the port companies of Amsterdam, Groningen, Moerdijk, Rotterdam and Zeeland.
