Abstract

Is the changing distribution of transport modes the effect of supply-side factors or of competition? – The changing distribution of land freight transport modes can be explained with reference to two sets of factors : those having to do with changes in the production apparatus upstream of the transport market ; and those that affect the competitiveness of various modes on the transport market itself.On the first set of factors, changes in industrial organization affect distribution by changing the type of products transported. Using the traffic statistics by NST categories, the effect this phenomenon had over the period 1980-1991 can be measured in terms of shares of the market going to different transports modes. Changes in the freight structure " explains" a sixth of the loss in market share by railroads, a third of that lost by inland waterways, and nearly a fifth of the gains recorded by road transport.----------------------------------------------With the author and the publisher of the copyright agreement.
