Methodological Information
Purpose and Coverage
The purpose of the Road Freight Transport Survey is to collect statistical data on the transport of goods by road within Cyprus or to and from Cyprus by motorised road transport vehicles registered with the Road Transport Department.
For domestic transport, a sample is selected from the list of registered lorries. Road transport of freight carried by vehicles with a payload of more than 3 tonnes shall be covered. The sample is divided into 9 categories according to the payload of the vehicle and the type of transport (public or private) and covers each of the 52 weeks of the year.
International transport covers all road freight transport to and from Cyprus during the year.
The data compiled are sent to Eurostat in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 70/2012 on statistical returns in respect of the carriage of goods by road.
Data collection
The unit of measurement is the motor vehicle for the carriage of goods by road. For each vehicle, data are collected on its characteristics, route and goods.
Information is collected by the enumerators throughout the year, by telephone interviews with drivers and from data provided by the companies to which the vehicles belong.
Definitions
The tonne-kilometre (tkm) is a unit of measurement of freight transport representing the transport of one tonne of goods by a given mode of transport over a distance of one kilometre.
