The Global Market for Intelligent Highway Technologies is Projected to Reach US$26.9 Billion by 2020
Demand for Efficient
Highway Traffic Management to Drive the Intelligent Highway Technologies Market,
According to a New Report by Global
Industry Analysts, Inc.
GIA
announces the release of a comprehensive global report on Intelligent Highway
Technologies. The
global market for Intelligent Highway Technologies is projected to reach
US$26.9 billion by 2020, driven by the growing demand for
sophisticated traffic monitoring and management technologies from road
authorities and highway operators across the world.
Against a backdrop of growing traffic volume, escalating congestion and pollution levels, governments, road authorities
and road operators, are focusing on upgrading the highway and roadway infrastructure.
In addition to building wider, multi-lane roads with high-quality materials and
efficient lane markings, road infrastructure programs in several parts of the
world are increasingly relying on advanced technologies and solutions that help
in efficiently managing the flow of traffic on highways. Road authorities and operators
are increasingly implementing Intelligent Highway Technologies, which integrate
advanced Information Communication Technology (ICT) solutions for
on-the-highway and/or in-vehicle deployment. Intelligent Highway Technologies
communicate with road authorities and/or motorists to ensure optimization of
traffic flow. Benefits such as lower emissions, reduced travel time, fuel efficiency,
and higher travel safety are generating significant opportunities for intelligent
highway technologies.
The market for intelligent highway technologies is
poised to gain from growing budget allocations for new road construction
projects and also for upgrading the existing road infrastructure in several
countries across the world. Currently, various advanced technologies and
solutions such as Electronic Toll Collection (ETC); GPS/GNSS, Automatic Number
Plate Recognition (ANPR), Lane Departure Warning (LDW), RFID, and Incident
Detection systems are being integrated into intelligent highway programs. In
addition, real-time monitoring & communication systems including video
surveillance, weather management, voice/video/data communication solutions, and
signage displays, are actively being pursued by road infrastructure developers
in their intelligent highway programs.
Electronic Toll Collection (ETC) systems with their
ability to infuse additional reliability in toll collection and generate a consistent
flow of revenues to improve the profitability for road operators, are
especially gaining priority among highway developers and operators. Global
automakers’ efforts to integrate advanced vehicle features such as intelligent
driver assistance systems, and in-vehicle communication & infotainment
systems are further poised to drive the demand for intelligent highway
technologies. Especially, the preference for technologies that communicate with
the road such as in-vehicle GPS/GNSS navigation systems, LDW systems and
similar technologies is expected to drive the growth momentum in the market.
As stated by the new market research
report on Intelligent Highway Technologies, the United States represents the
largest regional market, while Asia-Pacific ranks as the fastest growing market
with a projected CAGR of 20.4 % over the analysis period. China along with
other developing nations in Asia-Pacific, including South Korea, Taiwan, India,
Thailand, and Malaysia among others, will spur future growth in the market.
Major players in the market include Alcatel-Lucent,
Cisco Systems Inc., Indra Sistemas S.A., Intelligent Highway Solutions Inc.,
Kapsch AG, LG CNS, Siemens AG and Schneider Electric SE among others.
