The challenge facing TII is to deliver a safe and efficient network of national roads and light rail within the framework of sustainable development.
Who We Are
The Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII) Environmental Policy & Compliance Team is dedicated to delivering safe and efficient national roads, light rail, metro, and greenways within the framework of sustainable development. We work collaboratively across multiple disciplines to ensure the highest standards are achieved, providing expert guidance and policy direction throughout the planning, delivery, and operation of infrastructure projects. Our core priority is protecting and enhancing the environment, thereby improving quality of life. We strive to safeguard both the natural and built environment at every stage of project development nationwide - from the countryside to our towns and cities.
