Increased Government Spending: The government has targeted to increase infrastructure spending to more than 5% of the country’s GDP to reduce congestion and improving road infrastructure in the metropolis. Various efforts include Bonifacio Global City-Ortigas Business Centre link road, Strong Republic Nautical Highway, the introduction of a paperless system at Port of Manila, Public-Private Partnerships deals funded by Big Companies such as San Miguel Corporation.
High Seasonal Demand Variation: The demand for trucking in the Philippines is the highest during “Sond” Months (Sept, Oct, Nov, and Dec) where the occupancy of trucks is increased by 20-30% with price variation of 30-40% in comparison to normal freight rates due to festivals such as Christmas and New a year and additional employee bonus along with benefits given to the employees at the end of the year.
Change in Government Regulations: The government is constantly changing the regulations associated with the trucking industry such as the Restriction of trucks above the age of 15 years to avoid carbon emissions in the country. The government has also imposed Truck ban from 6:00 a.m. – 10:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. – 10:00 p.m. every day except Sundays and Holidays on certain routes applicable on heavy trucks to avoid congestion on roads
Inter-Island Connectivity by RORO: The Inter island movement between Visayas, Luzon, and Mindanao has improved due to cheaper and faster connectivity using the Ro-Ro Facility which allows vehicles to directly drive onto and off Ro-Ro ferries without loading/offloading of cargo. The travel time between Mindanao and Luzon has been reduced by 12 hours using Ro-Ro due to reduced time in loading/ unloading cargo and faster availability of ferries, which has also lowered the freight cost by almost 30%.
Analysts at Ken Research in their latest publication “Philippines Road Freight Market Outlook to 2024 – Driven by Government Spending on Road Infrastructure and Technological Advancements” believe that the Road Freight Market in the Philippines is expected to grow due to Government spending to reduce congestion in metropolitan Cities, RORO facilities that have reduced time and cost to transport products and Growing E-commerce Sector in The Philippines.
