Abstract

This work introduces research which aims to fill the gap of reliable freight traffic generation rates for Switzerland. The results are use-specific generation rates and simple statistical models for estimating expected freight traffic trips which can be used for transport and spatial planning. The study uses data from three sources: disaggregated data from a survey of firms, nationwide aggregated data, and ad-hoc traffic measurements. This paper centres on the establishment-based survey, which collects information on size, equipment, and volume of freight traffic generated by 250 establishments across Switzerland. The survey was conducted using a stratified random sampling method.
