Department for Transport Forthcoming Publications
Updated 11 June 2025
About this release
This schedule gives the planned publication dates of all the department’s statistical releases for the coming year.
Final publication dates are confirmed at least 4 weeks in advance of the release date, in line with the Code of Practice for Statistics.
Access to statistical releases are granted to certain individuals, 24-hours before the publication date. A list of those who have access are generally published on the routine statistical collection pages. This is in line with the department’s pre-release policy.
Notes on forthcoming publications
Following previous announced changes in October 2024, the department has further reviewed its planned publication schedule and would like to notify users of the following changes on which they are able to provide feedback.
-
In alignment with previous announcements, we are undertaking work to remove official statistics status from Driver and Rider Testing statistics, following the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) assuming responsibility for producing data on these topics. We are also undertaking work to remove official statistics status from our Journey Times Statistics and the Cycling Traffic Index, following the suspension of these series.
-
Statistics previously in the department’s Walking and Cycling Statistics series are now covered solely in other publications, and as a consequence this series will now no longer appear in the list of forthcoming publications. Further information can be found on the Walking and Cycling Statistics collection page.
-
The release of Road freight statistics: April 2024 to March 2025 and Road freight statistics: July 2024 to June 2025 have been postponed until spring 2026 following a business critical digital and data infrastructure transition at the Department for Transport.
Monthly statistical releases
For reasons of brevity, the monthly release of statistics on UK international sea passengers, SPAS0107 and UK Ship Register statistics, FLE0100 are omitted from the list of forthcoming publications. These statistics are usually released on the second Wednesday of each calendar month.
The department monitors transport activity on a timelier basis for topical issues relating to transport. These are also omitted from the list of forthcoming publications as they are published monthly.
- Daily domestic transport use by mode - daily indexed indicators of usage since January 2020
- Developing faster indicators - timely indicators monitoring developing transport-related events
