The onset of COVID-19 has a significant impact on the smart rail market and a considerable impact on the global economy because of the imposition of lockdowns in various regions for evading the spread of coronavirus. From March 2020, public transport in a large number of cities has been partially or entirely shut down for the short term.
However, the restrictions on public transport have been raised moderately after as well as many cities were experiencing a 70–90% decrease in the public transit ridership. Thus, after the gradual opening of lockdown, the world is considerably reshaping and tracking back with new permanent societal changes. Hence, the COVID-19 outbreak has shown a significant downfall in the global smart railways market.

Industry Dynamics
Growth Drivers
Efficient rail operation requires accurate scheduling, observing, and maintenance of rail-based assets. These schedules shrink the asset productivity and decrease downtime. This downtime is further protracted due to manual diagnostics with a low success rate.
Rail authorities greatly emphasize condition-based and predictive maintenance solutions to improve efficiency and cut time consumption. Condition-based and predictive maintenance mainly work on real-time analytics, thus, reducing the dependence on manual diagnostics. The data from rail assets can be utilized to improve rail asset utilization. Also, it enables the listed maintenance of assets and resource intensities and costs.
