| Abstract | The Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) estimates that transportation contributed $1,066.9 billion to the economy in 2016. Of this $1,066.9 billion, purchased transportation services (for-hire transportation) contributed $562.4 billion, transportation carried out by non-transportation industries for their own purposes (in-house transportation) contributed $172.3 billion, and households contributed $332.2 billion in operating their own automobiles. BTS measures this contribution to the gross domestic product in the Transportation Satellite Accounts (TSAs). The most current TSAs are for 2016 . This report focuses on the for-hire and in-house transportation services used by nontransportation industries. |
