Full steam ahead: Decarbonisation objectives spur a planned increase in rail freight volumes

Ireland's rail transport industry is dominated by Irish Rail, which is funded by the Irish government to operate InterCity, Commuter, DART and provide freight services. The industry is heavily weighted towards passenger services, with rail freight unable to break the dominance of road haulage in Ireland, accounting for a small share of revenue. Revenue is forecast to decline at a compound annual rate of 0.5% to €315.5 million over the five years through 2023.

Rail Transport in Ireland includes passenger and freight transport by rail between counties. The Passenger Rail Transport industry transports passengers by rail between urban areas. The industry also provides some support services, such as managing railway stations, and transports of freight and post.

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.
