Revisiting a standout moment from last year, Transport Infrastructure Ireland won both the Environmental Engineering Project of the Year and the Sustainability Award at the Engineering Excellence Awards 2025. The state agency was recognised for a Carbon Reduction pilot on the M7 that tested new road materials, extended emissions accounting to include Scope 3, and drove meaningful cultural change across contractor and state project teams. The double recognition underlined the M7 pilot's significance as a benchmark for sustainable infrastructure delivery in Ireland — a standard the 2026 awards cycle now invites the wider engineering community to build upon.
