Research by 1981 KPMG has revealed that the Russian road infrastructure market is growing by an average ten per cent per year. The market may total US$43.62 billion by 2020, compared with US$9.9 billion in 2007. According to analysts, only large federal road construction companies are able to achieve the highest profitability. However, such companies will have to reduce costs because contracts are becoming bigger and more complex and include construction of artificial structures, for example. Consolidation of companies by means of mergers and acquisitions in order to expand geographic reach or to boost a market share is one of the main trends of the market.

According to KPMG, an average road construction tender value amounted to US$90 billion in 2012 against US$81 billion in 2011.
