Spanish abstract | Argentina has a great territorial diversity that poses a challenge for planning internal transport of the goods produced and consumed in the country. There is no systematic and reliable data on origins and destinations of what is produced and consumed, and about the path of transport flows. A thorough understanding of the flows that configure the freight transportation network in the country is essential to any attempt to carry out a coherent and effective transport policy. This article provides a description of the type of goods circulating on the road network from the point of view of the transport volume they generate; what are the main sources and destinations of this transport, and a stylized representation of the road network |
