Overview of Data Requirements for Business Statistics Consultation

Steve MacFeely, Director of Business Statistics at the Central Statistics Office, provided feedback on consultation responses regarding road freight data requirements. The consultation highlighted the need for detailed data linked to policy objectives, covering various aspects of road, sea, air, rail, and cross-cutting categories. Specific variables and factors for economic and environmental aspects of road transport were outlined, emphasizing the complexity and demands of collecting comprehensive data in these areas.

1. Steve MacFeely Director of Business Statistics Central Statistics Office Consultation Feedback

2. Responses (18) x Institution Type 1 3 Transport 6 Environment Safety Research 3 Private International 3 2

3. General Remarks Road freight generated the most interest Data requirements well articulated & linked to policy objectives Data required quite demanding Some complex cross-cutting issues raised But many objectives still quite compartmentalised or silo based

4. Data Requirements Broken down into 5 categories: - Road (with 4 sub-categories) - Sea - Air - Rail - Cross cutting

5. Road (Economic) Variables Periodicity Juristiction Spatial Detail Origin - Destination x vehicle size Detailed route information Number of intervening stops on a delivery route Trip data by domestic/international/local x nature of the payload entry/exit seaports (including NI ports) x destination x payload Number of foreign (with EU/Non-EU split) drivers working with Irish operators Number of foreign drivers operating under cabotage by nationality Road usage data (including inter-modal loading, % of operation abroad) Details of empty journeys (km empty as proportion of total Km) Type and size of vehicle (Gross Vehicle Design Weights - less than 3.5 tonnes/3.5 - 18 tonnes/18+ tonnes) Cross-border routes (HGV and light) - licensed & unlicensed Number of operators licensed to operate on both sides of the border Cross-border routes (HGV and light) x time of day Total value of payments made Length of charged road in Km associated with toll point. Location on roads of toll points, tariff classes and rates for commercial vehicles Number and category of freight vehicles by registration (ROI, NI, GB, OTHER EU, OTHER) charged per period M A M M M M M M A A A A A A A A A ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI All Island ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI County/DED/City County/DED/City County County County County County County State Route Route Route Route road segment road segment road segment road segment

6. Road (Environment) Variables Periodicity Juristiction Spatial Detail Policy Number of HGVs (4 axle between 3.5 - 12 tonnes) by road segment* Number of HGVs (4 axle between 3.5 - 12 tonnes) on national roads by road segment Number of HGVs in the State by gross permissable vehicle weight HGV categorised by gross vehicle weight, instead of unladen weight Mileage for HGVs x size class (GVW) & technology/age Mileage split for HGVs for urban/rural/highway Average speed for HGV for urban/rural/highway Fuel consumption factors for light duty vehicles Breakdown of fleet by fuel type A A A A A A A A A ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI ROI ROI ROI ROI All Island road segment Energy/Environment road segment Energy/Environment State Energy/Environment State Energy/Environment State Energy/Environment State Energy/Environment State Energy/Environment State Energy/Environment State Energy/Environment * Junctions 6 & 7 on M50 of particular interest

7. Road (Safety) Spatial Detail Variables Periodicity Juristiction Main travel times Van Freight x Commodity x Mode Tonnage of HAZMAT Entry/Exit points for HAZMAT Driver demographics Vehicle owner demographics Types of undertakings involved in freight transport (e.g. self-employed, haulage operators, contract drivers) Cross-Border passenger traffic x route x time of day HGV driver hours compliance HGV roadworthiness A A A A A A A A A A ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI County County Road Road County County County State State State

8. Road (EU requirements) Spatial Detail Variables Periodicity Juristiction Number of registered HGVs by EURO emission class Average HGV vehicle-KM x EURO emission class HGV vehicle-KM x Gross Permissable Laden Weight HGV vehicle-KM of NI/GB registered vehicles transiting the State to GB/NI HGV vehicle-KM of ROI registered vehicles transiting NI to GB/OTHER HGV vehicle-KM x time of day HGV vehicle-KM x day HGV vehicle-KM x month HGV vehicle-KM x road network A A A A A A A A A ROI ROI ROI ROI ROI ROI ROI ROI ROI road road road road road road road road road

9. Rail Spatial Detail Variables Periodicity Juristiction Policy Tonnages and O - D for HAZMAT Type of commodity x railway hub Origin - Destination Average length of route A A A ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI Station Station County County Safety Safety Economic Economic A

10. Air Spatial Detail Variables Periodicity Juristiction Policy Tonnages and O - D for HAZMAT Type of commodity x airport Origin - Destination Total inter-airport freight (by air/road) Value of freight ( ) A A A A A ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI Airport Airport Airport Airport Airport Safety Safety Economic Economic Economic

11. Sea Spatial Detail Variables Periodicity Juristiction Policy Tonnages of HAZMAT Entry/Exit ports for HAZMAT Commodity Type x Volume by Port No. of containers arriving/departing at ports Ship Tonne-km A A A A A ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI NI ROI port port port State State Safety Safety Safety/Economic Economic Energy/Environment

12. Cross-Cutting Spatial Detail Variables Periodicity Juristiction Policy % of exports that use UK as a landbridge Exports/Imports: Origin - entry/exit port - Destination Contribution of Haulage Industry to economy Contribution of Transport to economy Services demand for freight Link transport and structural business Statistics A A A A A A ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI ROI & NI State County Economic State Economic State Economic State Economic Region Economic Economic Shared commodity classification N & S Correlation between Transport & Economic data - - All Island All Island - - All All

13. Conclusions Appears to significant data gaps Some of the required data are already available More onerous demands (e.g. detailed route) cannot come from surveys Need to examine new techniques, such as GPS, cameras etc. Is there a need for a Transport Satellite Account? Resource implications!

14. Next Steps 1 Gap analysis 2 Prioritise action plan

15. Questions & Comments?
