Automatic Train Control Market by Automation (GoA 1, GoA 2, GoA 3, GoA 4), Service (Consulting, Integration & Deployment), Train Type (Urban (Metro & High-Speed Trains), Mainline (Passenger & Freight Trains)), and Region - Global Forecast to 2023
[112 Pages Report] The global Automatic Train Control market size is expected to grow from USD 2.2 billion in 2018 to USD 3.6 billion by 2023, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 10.3% during the forecast period. High demographic growth, hyper-urbanization, technological advancements for increasing passenger convenience, and emerging trend of smart cities are expected to drive the global market.
By train type, the mainline segment to be a significant contributor to the Automatic Train Control market growth during the forecast period
Mainline train includes passenger trains and freight trains. Mainline train mainly includes long routes that cover almost every junction of the country. These trains are purposely developed for long routes only. With time, mainline trains are also designed with advanced technologies. Most of the railway operators are using ATC for mainline trains, as it helps avoid collision and maintain train routes. For instance, in 2018, Govia Thameslink Railway along with Network Rail and Siemens have deployed ATO solutions in European Train Control System (ETCS), which is deployed on the mainline railway for passenger services. This helped Govia Thameslink Railway manage passenger rail efficiently.
Support and maintenance segment to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period
Organizational environments are very complex, with multiple IT systems connected to perform the day-to-day operations. Therefore, the latest ATC solutions need to be upgraded in organizations for better rail operations. The support and maintenance services help the installed ATC system within the enterprises infrastructure. The support and maintenance services include 24/7 troubleshooting assistance, upgradation of the existing ATC solution, problem-solving, repairing, replacing old components, proactive services, technical support by technicians, and test scenario management. The support and maintenance segment also includes facility inspection and training, and round-the-clock support for ATC solutions. The support and maintenance services are widely adopted by organizations to avoid business threats and safeguard devices.
North America to hold the largest market size during the forecast period
North America constitutes developed economies, the United States (US) and Canada, which contribute majorly to the regional market. One of the key reasons for its major market share is the early adoption of technologies and the globalization of shared services in this region. The strong financial position of this region enables its countries to invest heavily in leading ATC solutions and technologies. The major growth drivers for this region are the increasing number of projects focused on upgrading and constructing freight infrastructures, and high-speed railway lines. Additionally, with the Rail Safety Improvement Act of 2008 and the corresponding regulations issued by the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), passenger and major freight railroads were required to implement Positive Train Control (PTC) on most major track lines by December 31, 2018. The Rail Safety Improvement Act of 2008 has increased the deployment of ATC solutions and associated technologies in the US, as ATC solutions are at the core of PTC.
