Market Growth Factors

The growth in the Europe Railroad Market can be attributed to the increasing shift from road-based transport to rail-based transport. The carbon emission norms are stringent, and, compared to other modes of transport, rail transport has lesser negative impact on the environment when it comes to transporting large volumes of goods and people. Much of the market's growth can be attributed to this shift.

Considerable amounts of money are invested in the railway infrastructure all over Europe and this drives the market forward. The policy of the Trans-European Transport Networks (TEN-T) is part of the reason for this, as it eases cross-border services. It would also aid the building of integrated infrastructure and higher rail usage.

Digital technologies are transforming the European rail market with solutions such as automated train control, real time train localization, predictive maintenance and connected signaling systems to improve efficiency, safety and passenger experience. The rollout of high-speed rail services in France, Spain and Germany, as well as rapid urbanization and population growth are also creating demand for public transport and reducing the time needed to travel between cities.
