The road transport industry is one of the sectors most impacted by COVID-19. This is caused by transport and movement restrictions put in place by countries to manage the pandemic, resulting disruptions to supply chains and mobility networks and the overall economic slowdown. This has seriously affected transport operator finances, including revenue and cash flow, moving many companies closer to bankruptcy.
- With road transport a fundamental driver of economic and social activity, the recovery from COVID-19 in countries all over the world is at risk.
- Goods transport losses globally are expected to exceed EUR 550 billion, with annual turnover down 18% • Passenger transport losses in Europe are expected to exceed EUR 80 billion, with annual revenue down 57%
