Between 2013 and 2023, the turnover of construction of railways and underground railways in Spain demonstrated significant fluctuations. The peak occurred in 2016 at €4.83 billion, but from then, the overall trend has been downward. In 2023, the value stood at €1.86 billion, illustrating a -7.38% year-on-year change and a -6.33% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the past five years.
The forecasted data from 2024 onwards indicates a continued decline. By 2028, the turnover is projected to decrease to €1.14 billion, equating to a -7.8% average annual reduction and an overall decline of -33.37% in just five years.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential policy changes or public investments that could impact infrastructure spending.
- Technological advances and their effect on construction efficiency and costs.
- Economic conditions, including inflation and recession risks, which could further influence investment in public works.
- Environmental regulations and initiatives aimed at promoting sustainable transportation infrastructure.
