Presentation Transcript
slide1. Nicola Fisher & Naomi McLaughlin DRD NI Data Availability and Comparability by Sector in Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland<br>
slide2. Document existing freight movement data sources Analysis of existing freight data sources –NI & ROI
Main sources- CSO (ROI), DfT (GB) and NISRA
Data requested from each organisation
- data related to NI
- data related to ROI
- data related to both NI and ROI<br>
slide3. Document existing freight movement data sources Data Sources document drawn up by mode
- Organisations (data providers)
- Data Source
- Data Summary Description
- Collation Method (census, admin system)
- Geographical coverage
- Publication frequency
- Published metadata<br>
slide4. Assess North-South data comparability and highlight significant issues Comparability table by mode created:
- availability of data (except rail) for NI & ROI
- comparability of data
- reason data aren’t comparable
- potential for comparability in future<br>
slide5. Produce a report on findings and include key comparable data Report by sector has been produced detailing
- availability, data issues, North- South comparability and potential information gaps<br>
slide6. Road Freight EU legislation 1172/98 on statistical returns in respect of the carriage of goods by road.
Should ensure comparability between EU nations.
Gathering detailed European statistics on road freight transport and harmonising them has been the challenge of the Council Regulation 1172/98.<br>
slide7. Main Sources of Data for Road Freight Department of Transport (UK) ‘Continuing Survey of Road Goods Transport (NI), CSRGT(NI)
CSO ‘National Survey of Transport of Goods by Road’
Administration Systems in both Jurisdictions (DVANI, National Vehicle Driver File (ROI))<br>
slide8. Data Issues for Road Freight Vehicle weight threshold
CSRGT(NI) defines freight as having Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) of > 3.5 tonnes
CSO defines freight as having an unladen weight of > 2 tonnes
No impact on freight definition but comparison not possible by vehicle type and weight<br>
slide9. Data Availability & Comparability<br>
slide10. Trends in Road Freight Data Road Freight Activity in NI & ROI by vehicles registered in NI, ROI & GB, 2004 – 2009<br>
slide12. Data Gaps Activities of Foreign Trucks
How long do they stay?
What are they carrying?
Nationality of Vehicles and Drivers?
Cabotage undertaken?
Tonnes lifted / tonnes km / Vehicle km<br>
slide13. Data Gaps Continued Extent of LGV/ Van Freight in Ireland
Large amount of goods being transported by small vans & lorries.
Significant increase in the number of LGV’s since 2005 in NI
No data on what they are carrying
Van Activity Baseline Survey in England 2008
Statistics Norway have also researched van freight.<br>
slide14. Maritime Freight EC Maritime Statistics Directive (Council Directive 2009/42/EC on statistical returns in respect of the carriage of goods and passengers by sea)
Quarterly returns from ports collecting data by route, nationality of vessel and cargo type.<br>
slide15. Main Sources of Maritime Freight Data Northern Ireland
Northern Ireland Ports Traffic - DETI
UK Maritime Statistics Report (detailed info on NI Ports)
Republic of Ireland
Statistics of Port Traffic – CSO
The Irish Maritime Transport Economist – IMDO - also includes info on NI Ports<br>
slide16. Data Availability & Comparability<br>
slide17. Maritime Data Trends<br>
slide18. Maritime Data Trends<br>
slide19. Maritime Data Gaps Don’t know what is being transported in Lift on/Lift off (Lo/Lo) containers or in the Roll on/Roll off (Ro/Ro) vessels.<br>
slide20. Air Freight EC regulation No 437/2003 on statistical returns in respect of the carriage of passengers, freight and mail by air<br>
slide21. Main Sources of Air Freight Data Northern Ireland
Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) - compile administrative returns from airports.
Statistics are published monthly / annually
Republic of Ireland
Aviation Statistics Survey – data published annually in Transport Omnibus Report<br>
slide22. Data Issues Double Counting of Airfreight
Relates to very high value goods, e.g. computer chips
Freight on Airway Bill before cost of transport determined
Potentially more cost-effective to transport by truck to Heathrow for onward transportation to USA<br>
slide23. Data Availability & Comparability<br>
slide24. Air Freight Trends<br>
slide25. Data Gaps for Air Freight No significant air freight gaps identified yet<br>
slide26. Rail Freight Rail Freight ceased in NI in 2003
Data for ROI is provided by Iarnród Éireann and published in CSO Transport Omnibus on an annual basis<br>
slide27. Rail Freight in ROI<br>
slide28. Rail Freight Data Issues Bord na Mona
Extensive private rail network which is used for carrying Peat to power stations & other businesses
3.3 million tonnes carried in 2008
Data not included in the CSO Statistics<br>
slide29. Rail Freight Data Gaps No significant data gaps identified yet<br>
