Under the baseline projections of the ITF International Freight Model, the growth in international freight volume is far from uniform, being significantly stronger along maritime routes and inland connections in Asia. The North Pacific corridor facilitated the highest volume of international freight flows in 2015; this was due mainly to the high volume of international trade from China to the United States. As Figure 9 shows, it is estimated that the volume of freight in the North Pacific corridor will increase significantly by 2050.
