Smart Transportation Industry

The global smart transportation market size was valued at USD 110.53 billion in 2022 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.0% from 2023 to 2030.

The market growth is driven by growing advancements in urban projects, government initiatives aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and the increasing demand for technology integration in traffic control systems. Lack of good quality and safe public transportation, inadequate capacity to manage public transport, concerns about reduced road safety, poor traffic management, and parking problems are significant issues affecting most cities (including pedestrian walkways). Thus, demand for smart transportation systems is likely to witness significant growth in the near future. Factors such as urbanization, the increased acceptance of IoT-based technology, and the expansion of 5G-based connectivity make smart transportation infrastructure easier to execute.
