National Transportation Statistics Updated: Includes Freight Ton-Miles Tabulations through 2006

The U.S. Department of Transportation's Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) today updated a special tabulation of ton-miles of freight by mode for 2006. BTS estimates for air, truck, rail, water, and pipelines were developed using a more comprehensive approach than was used in prior estimates. The special tabulation shows that freight ton-miles increased 1.4 percent from 2005 to 2006. Ton-miles by rail increased 6.9 percent from 2005 to 2006, the most of any mode. The new tabulation, with modal numbers through 2006, can be found here:
