The European construction sector for bridges and tunnels exhibits significant variance across countries. In 2023, Poland led with the highest number of enterprises, trailed by Hungary and Spain. Year-on-year changes showed growth in Germany, the UK, and Denmark, while Austria, Greece, and France saw declines. Remarkably, Luxembourg experienced a full exit, indicating market departures. Estonia and Bulgaria saw robust growth, contrasting with Italy and Slovenia's declines. Over five years, trends suggest variable expansion, with central and eastern Europe displaying substantial activity.
Looking forward, increased urbanization and infrastructure renewal demand will likely drive market dynamics. Enhanced EU funding and transnational projects could spur growth, particularly in emerging Eastern markets.
