Key Highlights
✅ BIM For Infrastructure (BIM):
- TII is implementing a structured Information Management (IM) and Building Information Modelling (BIM) framework across the full lifecycle of transport infrastructure projects, in alignment with the Public Sector BIM Mandate and the ISO 19650 series of standards.
- The BIM for Infrastructure suite of publications establishes a consistent approach to the planning, design, construction, operation and maintenance of national roads, greenways, active travel schemes and associated infrastructure assets. The framework supports improved collaboration, enhanced information quality, safer delivery, better asset management and data-driven decision-making throughout the asset lifecycle.

✅ Safety (STY):
- Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII) has developed the document “Road Infrastructure Safety Management – TII Implementation of the RISM Directive”, which establishes the framework for the implementation of Directive (EU) 2019/1936 on road infrastructure safety management and its transposition into Irish law. This defines a comprehensive and integrated approach to managing road safety on the national road network, incorporating both proactive and reactive measures across the full lifecycle of road infrastructure. These measures include:
- Road Safety Impact Assessment (RSIA)
- Road Safety Audit (RSA)
- Road Safety Inspection (RSI)
- Network Safety Analysis (NSA)
- Network-wide Road Safety Assessment (NWA)
- Temporary Safety Measures Inspection (TSMI)
- The purpose of this framework is to ensure a systematic approach to identifying high collision locations, assessing infrastructure-related safety risks, and prioritising interventions to reduce the frequency and severity of collisions on the national road network.
- As part of the implementation of this updated RISM framework, a number of existing TII standards and guidance documents are withdrawn and/or superseded by this new publication;
- GE-STY-01022 – Network Safety Analysis
- GE-STY-01036 – Network Safety Analysis Procedures
- AM-STY-06043 – Road Safety Inspection Guidelines
- AM-STY-06044 – Road Safety Inspection
- AM-STY-06046 – Road Safety Inspections - Inspection Team Qualifications
- These documents are now replaced by the requirements and processes set out in Road Infrastructure Safety Management – TII Implementation of the RISM Directive, which consolidates and updates previous practices into a single, cohesive framework aligned with EU legislative requirements.
- Stakeholders should ensure that all future road safety management activities on the national road network are undertaken in accordance with this new document.
