Freight Analysis Framework 6/25/25 Updated

Wednesday, June 25, 2025

The Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) released an updated version of its Freight Analysis Framework (FAF) commodity flow dataset, which now includes preliminary annual estimates for 2024 and final annual estimates for 2023. This newest version of the FAF (FAF 5.7) provides estimates of freight tonnage, value, and ton-miles1 by origin-destination pair of FAF regions, commodity type, and mode for:

  • Base year (2017)
  • Annual estimates (2018–2023)
  • Preliminary annual estimates (2024)
  • Forecast year estimates (2030–2050)
  • State-level historical trend estimates (1997–2012)

FAF5.7 is available at https://www.bts.gov/faf and includes the preliminary annual estimates for 2024. In addition, FAF5.7 includes improved estimates of foreign trade flows for 2024 by ground modes across the Canada and Mexico borders and of waterborne foreign trade flows. These improvement are applied to 2024 in this release and will be applied to previous years in upcoming releases. Updated annual estimates for 2024 will use the new FAF6 benchmark and will be available mid-2026.

BTS produces the FAF5 in partnership with the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Highway Administration
