Bridge & Tunnel Construction in the UK - Industry Market Research Report

Bridging growth: Upcoming infrastructure projects are set to underpin the industry in 2022-23

Contractors that focus on building and maintaining bridges and tunnels are contingent on public- and private-sector investment cycles and the level of funding for critical infrastructure and associated capital asset developments. The UK government has commissioned capital procurement schemes and bankrolled major projects after facing criticism of the UK's infrastructure network. Industry contractors have benefited from several contracts emerging from schemes like Highways England's Road Investment Strategy (RIS) and Road Investment Strategy 2 (RIS2) to enhance the strategic road network and Network Rail Delivery Plans. This industry covers contractors that construct bridges, tunnels and flyovers used in road and railway transport or for other specific applications such as water distribution. Repairs, additions and maintenance on existing infrastructure are also included. Discrete operations such as site surveillance can be subcontracted out. This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
