Interpret this report

HONEST as a national freight-volume index. It is an INDEX, not a count: it measures movement of freight by all domestic modes relative to a year-2000 base, and cannot be compared in level terms to anything in this directory. It is a backdrop — "was freight up or down while our listing count moved" — and nothing in it can be attributed to any port or company. The most recent month or two are routinely revised, and months BTS has not populated are omitted rather than carried forward.

Use the publisher’s definitions and revision policy when comparing periods. This page reproduces the stored observations; the latest available source release may be newer.
