Abstract:
This paper describes a Sample Survey of Road Freight Transport which
was carried out by the Central Statistics Office during 1964. The main objective of the survey was to provide estimates, at the
national level, of such important economic indicators as the total tonnage
of goods moved by road, the ton-mileage performed, vehicle miles
travelled, etc. It was also the intention of course, from the outset, to
provide the information in considerable detail, e.g. by unladen weight of
vehicle, by region, by length of haul, etc. The absence of information of
this kind has long been a major gap in the national statistics.
