About this data
Two monthly freight indicators that move ahead of production and trade statistics. The truck toll mileage index measures the distance travelled by toll-liable heavy goods vehicles on German motorways and tracks industrial production closely. The RWI/ISL container throughput index covers the world's major container ports and, separately, the North Range ports from Le Havre to Hamburg, as the original index, seasonally adjusted and as a trend-cycle.
