This massive migration is predicted to stimulate market expansion. The expansion of the market can be attributed to global infrastructure development and technological progress. Many governments are implementing bus rapid transit, metro, monorail, and light rail transit to meet the demand for public transportation in megacities, hence increasing public ridership and driving market growth.
The increasing population and expanding suburbs are the primary forces driving the public transportation vehicle market. Moreover, public transportation provides individuals with cost-effective and secure mobility options in order to promote a healthy environment and robust metropolitan area. Therefore, boosting the use of public transportation decreases road congestion. In addition, growing fuel costs are driving the need for public transportation vehicles. However, the availability of ridesharing vehicles is impeding industry expansion. Increasing government expenditures on the development of public transportation infrastructure also contributes to market expansion.
Increased use of public transportation vehicles is advantageous for both the government and consumers. The government gains monetary benefits from a low-cost and safe means of transportation for consumers. In recent years, there has been a proliferation of investments in constructing the infrastructure necessary for the running of the public transportation sector. In 2020, the government of the United Kingdom announced a $5 billion investment in the development of local public transportation, which will include 4,000 new zero-emission buses. In addition, India allocated USD 9.62 billion for railways in its 2019 budget.
