Global Monorail Market Size study & Forecast, by Type (Straddle Monorail, Suspended Monorail), by Propulsion (Electric Monorail Systems, Maglev Monorail Systems), by Size (Large Size, Medium Size, Compact Size) and Regional Analysis, 2022-2029
Global Monorail Market is valued approximately USD 6.74 billion in 2021 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 2.82% over the forecast period 2022-2029. A monorail is a train in which the track comprises of a single rail or beam, made up of either concrete or metal. A monorail is supported and guided by wheels mounted underneath the train, that are constantly in contact with the track. Usually, this train is powered by electricity provided via a third rail mounted along the track. These trains are wider than the track thus, requires minimum space. Also, the trains consist of three or four bogies and can have up to eight bogies, each of them running on two single axle rubber tire bogies. The load bearing tires act as the bogie primary suspension and the secondary bogie suspension is provided by air springs and shock absorbers fitted among the bogie frame and the bogie bolster. Mainly, monorail finds its applications in medium capacity metros and airport transfer. Growing need for environment friendly transportation, increased demand for cost effective & efficient transportation for public services, increasing urbanization and increasing investment on monorail projects worldwide are the few factors responsible for high CAGR of the market around the world.
The rising urbanization in developing countries is anticipated to influence to invests in monorail projects that support the market growth during forecast period. For instance, In India, the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) and a consortium of Larsen & Toubro and Scomi Engineering (LTSE) both are working together to implement the monorail project on build operate transfer (BOT) basis until 2029 with the estimated investment around Rs 24.6 billion (USD 501.9 million). Moreover, increasing technological developments and innovations led to change in monorail speeds and the distance it covers is one of the major factors likely to create lucrative growth opportunity to the market in the upcoming years. However, low passengers carrying capacity and availability of alternate modes are few factors anticipated to restraining the growth of global Monorail market during the forecast period 2022-2029.
The key regions considered for the Global Monorail Market study includes Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America, and Rest of the World. Asia-Pacific is the dominating region across the world in terms of market share, owing to the large number of proposed monorail projects, increasing demand for efficient passenger transportation service and rapid urbanization in the region. Whereas, North America is also anticipated to exhibit highest growth rate over the forecast period, owing to factors such as rise in the space optimization, surge in the technological developments and increase in the traffic congestion in the region would create lucrative growth prospects for the Monorail market across North America.
