Sažetak
The aim of the survey was to clarify gross vehicle weights (GVWs) allowed on roads in the domestic timber-trucking logistics of different countries, the share of the road transport of total industrial roundwood longdistance transport volumes, and the average payloads, transport distances and costs of industrial roundwood longdistance transport. The inquiry was sent to a total of 30 European countries with the biggest industrial roundwood removals. Furthermore, the inquiry was sent out to selected major forestry countries in the world (Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, Japan, New Zealand, South Africa, Turkey, United States of America, and Uruguay) in February 2022 and closed in June 2022. A total of 32 countries participated in the survey. GVWs allowed on roads in timber trucking ranged from under 40 tonnes to over 70 tonnes. The results depicted that higher GVWs signify larger payloads in timber trucking. The survey revealed also that road transport is the main long-distance transport method of industrial roundwood in most of the responding countries. The road transport distance of industrial roundwood averaged 112 km. The average road transport cost was approximately €9.7 ($11.0) per tonne of timber. The survey illustrated that relatively low GVWs and long transport distances increase transport costs. Most of the respondents complained about the absence of comprehensive official statistics, and some experts could not answer to all questions or – alternatively – they gave their own best estimates as a replacement. Therefore, up-to-date statistical data on the long-distance transport of industrial roundwood is needed in some countries.
