Canada Transportation and Logistics Market Insights 2017: Automated Vehicles, Integrated Multi-modal Freight Systems, and Smart Warehouses are Likely to Transform the Logistics Market - Research and Markets

DUBLIN--()--The "Transportation and Logistics Market Insights - Canada" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The aim of this study is to research and analyze key developments and trends relating to economy and trade and the freight and transportation and logistics and warehousing sectors in Canada.

Canada's transportation system needs to adapt to fundamental trends such as shifting trade patterns, new environmental requirements, and technological innovation. Short-to-medium-term employment in the transportation and warehousing space will be driven by low energy costs and investments in regional transit.

Warehouse/distribution facilities are seeing increased demand due to the rising exports, coupled with the low transportation costs. Toronto and Montreal warehouse spaces possess a locational advantage that will help to capitalize on export growth.

The Trade and Transportation Corridors Initiative (TTCI) will invest $2 billion over 11 years to make Canada's trade corridors more efficient. Road and rail are the preferred means of transporting freight domestically, while air and sea are used for international trade.

Smart vehicles, integrated multimodal freight systems, and green technologies play a key role in establishing sustainable logistics in Canada's supply chain management. Big Data analytics, drones, automated vehicles, telematics, and alternate fuel vehicles are the key trends that will gain a strong footprint in the country's future transportation system.
