The Report exposes and analyzes transport in Spain and its context from the perspective of observed mobility, the competitiveness of the sector, transport operational safety, environmental sustainability and logistics, with consolidated data for 2021.
New version of the indicators through a more accessible and attractive technology that improves the dissemination of information and allows a better analysis of transport.

Transport and mobility are a fundamental aspect of today's society. In order to improve and guarantee its proper functioning, it is essential to have a global vision and to have reliable, updated, transparent and accessible information on transport and logistics activity in Spain.
OTLE analyses the mobility of passengers and freight from a global perspective, considering all modes of transport (road, rail, air and sea) and areas (national and international).
393,910 million passenger-kilometres in 2021, of which almost 90 % are road journeys.
More than 150 million annual passengers in 2020. Road and air travel are in the top positions.
2,183 million tonnes in 2021. More than 73 % are of national origin and destination. In domestic transport almost 95.8 % is by road and in international transport 78.3 % is by sea.
Given the importance of socioeconomic aspects in any activity, especially in transport and logistics, we include information on macroeconomic aggregates, companies, employment, investment, prices and costs, etc.
Production of 117,580 million euros, value added of 43,163 million euros, 210,502 companies and 901,800 jobs in 2021.
In 2021, net investment in transport and storage activities by Spanish companies amounted to 308,6 million euros, much lower than the 701,4 million euros invested in Spain from abroad.
263,628 million euros and almost 175 million tonnes in 2020.
In this section we offer global statistical information on transport infrastructures in Spain, data on rolling stock, and investments in technology and innovation.
165.443 kilometres of roads in 2019, a rail network of 15,632 kilometres in 2021, 46 airports (and 2 heliports) in the Aena network and 28 port authorities.
In 2021, the national vehicle fleet consisted of 35,178,808 vehicles.
Companies in the transport and storage sector invested 47.6 million euros in R&D in 2021.
Moving people or goods as efficiently and safely as possible is one of the biggest challenges facing the transport sector today. For this reason we have safety and accident information on all modes of transport.
We analysed three specific aspects of environmental sustainability in transport: the air pollution generated by each mode of transport, the energy consumption of each mode of transport and the amount of the population exposed to noise pollution.
As a consequence of the growing importance of cities, metropolitan mobility is becoming more and more important. We analysed metropolitan transport by collective means of transport (metro, tram and bus) based on the information gathered by the Metropolitan Mobility Observatory.
9,876 million passenger-kilometres were added by the major metropolitan areas in 2020, with bus being the most used mode (5,906 million passenger-km) compared to rail with 3,970.
1,286 urban bus lines in the main metropolitan areas and 832 kilometres of railways (metro, light rail and tramway) in 2020..
1,988 million euros in 2020 in tariff revenues.
We present a transversal approach to logistics activity, offering data on freight transport, socioeconomic data, infrastructures and information on intermodality, a key aspect in the logistics chain.
2,183 million tonnes were transported by all modes of transport in 2021, including 1,609 million tonnes of domestic traffic.
154,182 companies in 2020, 690,897 employees and an output exceeding 58,962 million euros.
