Executive Summary—Key Findings Automated people movers (APMs) are the fastest growing urban rail segment while light rail has the majority of
infrastructure projects.
Source: Frost & Sullivan analysis.
After a decade of flurried development, growth in light rail systems are stabilizing as most
municipalities have installed light rails.
Though the number of light rail projects is decreasing as compared to the previous decade, light
rail still has the maximum number of greenfield projects.
1
2 APMs represent the fastest growing segment and will have increased their presence by more than
three times in 2021.
3 A total of 406 urban areas have urban rail in active service in countries considered in this study.
The size of the urban rail network expanded by 2,843 km between 2003 and 2012. Metro rail has
higher opportunities in track upgrades, extensions, and signaling systems.
4 63.4 percent of all urban rail projects installed in the last 10 years were light rail systems. A total of
46 new light rail systems have been developed over the last 20 years (1993‒2012) while 30 new
systems are expected to come up in the next 10 years (2013‒2022).
5
European metro rail systems are more active in purchasing new rolling stock as compared to light
rail. No metro fleet operator currently operating has any fleet that is more than 35 years old (on an
average). Italy, France, and the United Kingdom are expected to place rolling stock orders to
replace 1,268 metro rolling stock by 2015.
6 Alstom, Siemens, and Bombardier face threats from Ansaldo, CAF, and Vossloh, which are
significantly increasing their market presence with strong orders for rolling stock.
6 M77E-18
Executive Summary—Key Trends and Predictions
A total of 46 new light rail systems have been developed over the last 20 years (1993‒2012) and 30
new systems are expected to be built over the next 10 years (2013‒2022).
France continues to be the hot spot for light rail, with four projects coming to be operational by the end
of the forecast period. Light rail is likely to witness a resurgence in Sweden and Denmark.
APMs are the fastest growing segment and will have increased their presence by more than three times
in 2021. Although APMs are guideway-based systems, heavy APMs are now seen as a transition
between light rail and metro rail systems.
Dutch and Italian orders are expected to re-launch heavy APMs back into the mainstream urban
transport category from automated airport systems.
Italy is the largest market for APMs. Six of the seven greenfield APM projects are in Italy. The cities of
Brescia, Milan, and Rome are all expected to have operational APM systems by 2015.
European metro rail systems are relatively more active in purchasing new rolling stock as compared to
light rail. No fleet operator currently operating has any fleet that is more than 35 years old. Italy, France,
and the United Kingdom are expected to place rolling stock orders to replace 1,268 rolling stock by
2015.
The metro rail rolling stock is moderately aging, with 42.4 percent of the fleet being more than 20 years
old. More than 790 rolling stock are expected to be retired by the end of 2015. Stiff competition is
expected between Alstom’s Metropolis, Bombardier’s Movia, and Siemens’s Inspiro Product lines.

Executive Summary—Urban Rail has Evolved to Newer Application
Formats Conventional tramway and metro rail systems are giving way to systems such as tram-trains and APM systems.
Urban Rail Market: No. of Greenfield Urban Rail Projects, Western Europe, 2011
• France is still a major driving force for tram development.
• Tram on tyres is looked upon as an ideal solution for operating feeder routes or for upgrading significant
bus routes to urban rail.
• Translohr has single handedly carved its dominance in a niche market.
• Tram trains are replacing commuter rail systems with connecting city centers with sub-urban or other
urban areas
• Light rail systems with segregated rights of way are seen as being ideal for mid-sized cities (Area: 120 sq
km/Population of 300,000) that are witnessing explosive growth and will become megacities in the future.
• Italy and Spain each have three light rail projects that have been approved.

• Tramways are witnessing high favorability among municipalities.
• Quick installation times with low cost are the major drivers for rapid growth.
• Cities like Sevilla have successfully implemented a city-wide tram system.
• Ansaldo dominates the APM systems market with almost seven projects at the end of
the planning phase. Six of these projects are for Italian cities. Note: % values in chart

shares of the new

• After a decade of flurried development, growth in light
rail systems is stabilizing as most municipalities have
installed light rails.
• Further expansion depends on passenger adoption
and demand.
• By 2021, France, Italy, and Spain will have a total of
41 greenfield light rail systems constructed since
2000. (93.2 percent of the total market).
Executive Summary—Light Rail is the Top Urban Rail Choice Although the number of light rail projects has reduced as compared to the previous decade, the maximum
number of greenfield projects are still light rail projects. APM systems constitute the second fastest growing
market.

“Metro and its costs are unjustified and unwarranted unless you are talking about city sizes
comparable to London, Paris, and Berlin. When we upgrade, we will choose an APM
systems/light metro solution and complement it with new tram/Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) lines.”
