Railway Signalling System Market Driver

Increasing Automation of Urban Rail Infrastructure to Boost Growth

• In order to control rail traffic, communication-based train control, or CBTC, is used by autonomous trains. CBTC enables the communication between trains and devices on the tracks. This technology guarantees increased safety and higher efficiency of the device as well as the passengers by enabling a comprehensive identification of bogey alignments, train positions, and track stability. Compared to road transportation, autonomous trains operate more often and can carry more people and more cargo at a quicker pace. Additionally, since autonomous technology might take the place of both the train drivers and the control officers, automation in trains can significantly increase the cost-efficiency of railway operations.

Railway Signalling System Market Restraint

High Initial Cost and Unavailability of Skilled Professionals

• Due to the reasonable fare costs, speedier method of transportation, and increased use of cutting-edge technology in the rail infrastructure, the demand for rail transportation has been steadily rising over the past several years. As a result, in order to meet this constantly growing demand, the rail authorities will need to invest heavily in developing the rail infrastructure, introducing high-speed trains, expanding the rail networks, and adopting cutting-edge technology. Due to the government's constrained budget, all of these investments could not materialize. The additional costs associated with maintaining, replacing, and managing both new and current systems inside railroad facilities may also serve as a significant barrier to the expansion of the market for railway signalling systems.
