Railway System Market: Size, Share, Applications, Technology Trends, Challenges and Forecast to 2025
Posted: Apr 29, 2019
The Railway System Market is estimated to be USD 26.0 billion in 2019 and projected to reach USD 35.3 billion by 2025, at a CAGR of 5.2%. Increase in user preference for public transportation is projected to drive the market.
The rapid transit segment is expected to be the largest contributor to the railway system market, by transit type, during the forecast period.
The current limitations of transport infrastructure in developed as well as developing economies have fueled the development for new and existing rail lines. Increasing traffic and growing population in urban areas have boosted the demand for eco-friendly transit options from commuters and governments. In metropolises, expansion of existing urban transit networks has generated demand for new vehicles which is fueling the demand for rapid transit. The vehicle fleet is larger in developed countries of Western Europe, while demand is expected to be higher in emerging economies such as China, Brazil, and India, where new infrastructure projects are being launched. These rapid transit vehicles are modern vehicles equipped with advanced safety and information systems. Moreover, the majority of these transit vehicles have HVAC systems as well.
