September truck tonnage levels are solid, reports American Trucking Associations

The ATA’s advanced Seasonally Adjusted (SA) For-Hire Truck Tonnage Index for September—at 112.9 (2015=100)—headed up 2.4%, following a 0.3% August increase (downwardly revised from an original reading of 0.5%). On a year-to-date basis through September, SA tonnage is flat. ATA said that this index is comprised mainly of contract freight rather than spot market freight.
