Transportation Media Research has just published its first annual Inside the Numbers report on transportation trends. The report includes Canadian data on a variety of items of direct interest to truck fleet executives such as annual freight volume comparisons and projections, rates, surcharges, length of contracts, modal preferences and more. The data was collected from our annual surveys of both shippers and truck fleet executives across the country. Also included are insights from industry analysts. The report, which is more than 50 pages, is available for electronic download. To find out more, go to trucknews.comand click on the Inside the Numbers advertisement.

Truck News managing editor Adam Ledlow was “chief guest” during Avaal Technology Solutions’ recent graduation ceremony for its Dispatch Specialist course. Ledlow congratulated students on their successful completion of the course, and provided insight into how their newly acquired skills would prepare them for the unique challenges they would face in the transportation industry.
