Intelligent Transportation System Market Analysis

Roads (vital components of urban infrastructure) facilitate human mobility and logistics, serve as the basis of social and economic growth, and link cities, ports, and airports. Although road maintenance and development promote economic growth, the increased traffic volume leads to issues such as overcrowding and road accidents. The negative consequences of increasing vehicle ownership have been worse in recent years. It has led to a significant increase in road traffic injuries and environmental degradation due to greenhouse gas emissions. To improve traffic management and infrastructure, ITS uses a wide range of ICTs based on wired and wireless connections. It lowers transportation risks, eases traffic congestion, increases transportation efficiency, lowers pollution, and enhances the driving experience, road system safety, and capacity. By integrating cutting-edge communications technology into the transportation infrastructure and vehicles, ITS increases productivity, improves mobility and safety in transportation, and strengthens global connection. Thus, the demand for ITS is expected to grow in the upcoming years. The intelligent transportation system (ITS) market is majorly driven by increasing smart city initiatives and infrastructure development, rapid urbanization across regions, and government initiatives to enhance road safety. Further, the focus of government bodies to improve transportation infrastructure is expected to generate lucrative opportunities in the market during the forecast period. However, system integration challenges, cybersecurity threats, and high maintenance costs are factors hampering the market growth.

Intelligent Transportation System Market Overview

Intelligent transportation systems use state-of-the-art wireless, electronic, and automated technologies to monitor, assess, and control transportation networks. They use information and communications technology (ICT) to connect automobiles and transportation infrastructure. Thus, the advantages of wireless devices, sensor technologies, and smart ICT services have led to a surge in the adoption of ITS. Further, ITS has numerous applications in tolling, commercial vehicle operations, traffic operations, traveler information, and public transportation to improve traffic flow, prevent collisions, and enhance passenger comfort and safety.

Intelligent Transportation System Market Drivers and Opportunities

Rapid Urbanization Across Regions to Fuel Market Growth

Traditional transportation infrastructure is perceived to be inefficient in resource allocation, pollution control, and traffic congestion. The increase in commuter traffic and vehicle ownership generates a persistent need for intelligent solutions and improved traffic management techniques. ITS aids in automated parking, smart traffic lights, and real-time public transport tracking. Transportation management is an important aspect of urban planning and development. According to the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE), by 2050, 55% of the world's population is expected to live in urban areas. Further, according to the World Bank, 56% of the world's population, i.e., 4.4 billion inhabitants, currently live in cities. This trend is expected to continue, with the urban population reaching new heights by 2050, wherein nearly 7 of 10 people may live in cities.  Given that cities create over 80% of the world's GDP, well-managed urbanization can promote sustainable growth by boosting productivity. Thus, urban expansion and development boost the intelligent transportation system market growth.

Government Focus on Transportation Infrastructure

The construction of metro facilities, new airports, and railway networks is growing worldwide. In March 2023, the Canadian Kelowna City Council approved the funding of US$ 90 million for the Kelowna Airport terminal expansion project. As of 2023, six new airports were under construction in the US. In 2022, the Government of India announced its plans to build 220 airports by the end of 2025. In 2023, the Indian government approved US$ 3.93 billion for seven transformative railway projects to boost connectivity. In November 2021, The US Congress passed the Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal to repair and rebuild roads and bridges across the country by investing US$ 110 billion. By focusing on climate change mitigation, resilience, equity, and safety for all users, the investment is aligned to transform poor roads and highways in the country in the next five years. According to a joint statement by the US President and Canada's Prime Minister in March 2023, under the Canadian Critical Minerals Infrastructure Fund, ~US$ 1.09 billion (CAD 1.5 billion) will be invested to support clean energy and transportation infrastructure projects.  Thus, the growing infrastructure development projects across the world are expected to create lucrative opportunities for the ITS market growth during the forecast period.

Government bodies across this region are focusing on smart mobility and the implementation of ITS. For instance, in October 2023, with a view to accelerating digital transition and smarter mobility in the EU, the Council adopted a new framework for the deployment of ITS by revising the 2010 directive. Technology advancements such as automated and connected mobility, on-demand mobility apps, and multimodal transportation are all intended to be taken into consideration by the updated directive. Additionally, it seeks to improve interoperability and speed up the availability of digital data that supports navigation and multimodal trip planners. This will enable communication between automobiles and road infrastructure to alert drivers to unforeseen circumstances, such as a traffic bottleneck up ahead. On June 2, 2022, the Council adopted a general stance on this proposal. On June 9, 2023, a provisional agreement on the new directive's language was obtained after interinstitutional discussions with the European parliament.
