FREIGHT MOVEMENT SURVEY
On 15 March 2002 the ABS released Freight Movements, Australia, Summary, 1 April 2000 to 31 March 2001 (Cat. no. 9220.0). This new publication provides statistics on tonnes and tonnes-kilometres of freight moved within Australia between selected Statistical Divisions. This information is cross-classified by the mode of transport (rail, sea, air and selected road), the broad commodity grouping (based on the Australian Transport Freight Commodity Classification) and the type of freight (liquid bulk, solid bulk, containerised, dangerous and refrigerated).
