Asia-Pacific led the market in 2020, generating the highest revenue, and is expected to maintain a robust growth rate throughout the forecast period. This growth is fueled by increased investments in road and highway construction in countries like India, China, and Brazil. However, economic volatility in regions such as Latin America may pose challenges to market expansion. Despite these challenges, rising competition and new bridge projects are anticipated to mitigate these impacts in the future.
Bridge Types and Market Trends
The market is segmented into various bridge types, including:
Beam
Truss
Arch
Suspension
Cable-stayed
Others (e.g., stressed ribbon, pile, cantilever, and covered bridges)
The beam bridge segment accounted for the largest market share in 2020. Its widespread adoption is attributed to its efficiency and high demand within the transport infrastructure sector.
Materials Driving the Market
The bridge construction market is categorized by materials, with the concrete segment dominating in 2020. Concrete bridges are widely used due to their durability and cost-effectiveness in supporting urban and transport infrastructure.
Steel bridges, on the other hand, are critical for railway networks, enabling inter-state and inter-country connectivity. Governments worldwide are investing heavily in railway infrastructure to boost economic productivity. These investments contribute to the growth of steel-based bridges, further driving the overall market trends.
Applications and Growth Drivers
The market is segmented based on applications, including roads and highways, railways, and others. Among these, the road and highway segment led the market in 2020 and is expected to sustain its dominance during the forecast period. Factors such as:
Rapid urbanization and industrialization
Increasing global population
Government initiatives to expand and upgrade transport networks
are key drivers behind this trend.
Urbanization in developing regions has heightened the need for modern infrastructure, leading to the construction of new bridges and fueling market opportunities. Additionally, bridge construction is central to enhancing connectivity, supporting economic growth, and improving mobility.
Halting of new bridge projects in developing nations such as India, Brazil, Vietnam, and China.
Supply chain disruptions, delaying ongoing construction activities.
As the global economy recovers and governments resume infrastructure projects, the market is expected to rebound, supported by pent-up demand for new bridges.
Key Strategies and Developments
To remain competitive, companies in the bridge construction industry have adopted strategies such as product development, business expansion, and acquisitions. For instance:
In August 2017, Samsung C&T, a South Korea-based company, completed the construction of the Mersey Gateway Bridge in the UK. This 2.13 km long, six-lane cable-stayed bridge cost approximately $450 million and exemplifies innovative and large-scale infrastructure projects.
